Plymouth International
Good place, quite central. Would stay there again. Although some younger guests were quite noisy late at night. The hotel management should just put a sign in the hallways for all guests to be aware and respectful towards other guests after a certain time in the night.

Flamingo Motel
Nice place, slightly dated but nothing to prevent an enjoyable stay. Car parks were spacious and easy to get in and out of. Pool looked good. A brand new trampoline was being put up when i was there. The guy managing the place was friendly and approachable.
