Plymouth International
Very nice hotel, and upgraded my room to a Presidential room, which is superb. The restaurant is great too, those Blame dishes are cooked in front of you, which is a great experience. Their staff are friendly, too.

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.
