We booked for two nights with a view to moving on but liked Overdale enough to decide to stay longer. Friendly, welcoming, efficient. Breakfast very good. Our room was relatively small but it didn’t need to be big; it was comfortable and suited our needs. I’ve read many of the reviews and would suggest to those few with moans that they actually read about where they’re booking and what it offers before they book. I knew exactly what to expect and Overdale exceeded my expectations. As Susan says, it’s a motel, not a hotel (though I’ve paid double Overdale’s price for lesser facilities in some hotels). Recommended, we’d definitely stay again.

No problems

- As described. Nice host, contacted us what time we’d be coming. Really friendly. - Clean and good sized bed room. Comfy mattress and pillows. - TV, Kettle, Coffee and water in the room. - Hot water shower. Tap on the sink was a bit slow. - Although we didn’t use it but the place had a big living room for the guests. Also kitchen/restaurant. Breakfast was included but we didnt go down as it was too early for us (8-9am). - Safe area. Lots of lights outside during night time and cameras. - Free parking.

- None.

The Overdale Motel is a lovely, family owned hotel. The owners, Susan and Malcolm, were very helpful and everything we needed was provided for. We stayed in room 4, a nicely furnished twin-bed room overlooking the garden. Very comfortable beds, immaculate cleaning throughout. Excellent multiple choice breakfast, served by the friendly and competent staff, Alison, Jennifer and Vicki. This was an outstanding visit for my wife and I. We have no hesitation in highly recommending the Overdale Motel and look forward to returning.

I wouldn't change a thing. Loved all of it!

Breakfast was nice with a good selection. Only minus point was the gluten free sausages. My wife is coeliac and when the sausages were ordered on our second morning we were informed that they needed to be ordered 24 hours in advance. Nothing on the menu or elsewhere to inform us. The residents lounge was comfortable and allowed me to read and relax outside of the bedroom.

Was surprised with the timing of breakfast and checkout. Just are used to both being a bit later. But it is what it is.

Beds were comfortable, everything worked. It was very quiet, no doors banging or creaky beds. Very spacious bathroom with bath and shower in our room. It was an older house which gave it a certain charm to my liking but some might find it a bit dated. Breakfast food was very satisfactory, a good number of choices for cereals and the cooked menu. Staff were friendly.

Parking area was small and a bit tricky to manoeuvre the car at times. Nothing else was negative for me

Very easy going host who was very kind about our late arrival. Beautiful, homely room with comfy beds. Everything was clean. Breakfast was delicious with really juicy mushrooms- my favourite! Options for GF available but do need to pre-order GF sausage.

Arrived in the dark to a busy car park and Reception sign wasn't obvious. I think it would be useful to add information on the 'private' doors to help with this. It was very hot in our room, even with windows open and the radiator off... but it's probably hard to please everyone.

The room was as described. It was clean, and had all the necessary amenities for a good night's sleep. The beddings were clean. I stayed in the room with the external bathroom, and it wasn't much of a hassle getting out to use. Thank God, I met no one between. The breakfast was adequate with a menu for what was available. The owner was very accommodating as we had an early start and she fed us before the 8-9 am usual breakfast time. Most importantly, I had a very late flight back and she kindly allowed me to stay in the lounge before heading back to the airport later that evening. All her staff were friendly.

Not much really.

Good place to stay. Super friendly staff. Excellent wide voice of breakfast. Good views from the single room. Good access to Belfast and Lisburn. Massive bathroom.

Bed was very, very soft and was uncomfortable for me. Bathroom is down the corridor from the room unfortunately. Despite the bathroom being very large, the shower was small. Also, the side panel of bath was broken. Due to the rain, guests were smoking at the hotel entrance which was right below the room - I had to close the windows.

this place is really cute the entire decor and feel is so warm and homely the hosts and all the staff are just lovely. the breakfast was super delicious and really fulfilling. great value for money.

- just be prepared to pay cash in case their card machine isn't working as was in our case. -also would have preferred a mixer tap in the bathroom sink instead of separate hot/cold taps but not a big deal was able to work with it

Lovely welcome and I felt like I was home from home. I would love to stay again the next time I’m in town. I had a double room which had a patio area outside which was very nice. The motel has a living room and a self catering bar area so it would be a great spot for a group if you bring your own

Can’t say a bad word - the hostess was lovely and I am just disappointed I didn’t have time to stay for breakfast- next time I will
