Mia H.
That pool incident really frightened us. There were no signs showing the depth or warning about the pressure points. While swimming, one of my friends hit a pressure cap in the middle, lost control, and nearly drowned. A friend's child was bitten by a spider too, and his left palm swelled up. He's only a little over two, so he now needs to see a doctor. I first stayed at John Bright Motor Inn with friends in 2019, then booked again for January 2026. We paid over $650 for three nights and four days, and the room and service weren't worth that price. There were cobwebs, dust in the carpet, and the balcony looked like it hadn't been cleaned in decades. The only reason I'd give it a star is the location. I hope management looks into the upkeep and safety, especially given where the accommodation is. We were on Level 1, but there was only a shared microwave on level 0. Having to go down there in the middle of the night to heat something was a pain. Bring a hot water bottle, food that doesn't need refrigerating, or plan to eat out. I wouldn't book here with children.

The pool was quite nice, and the location is lovely. The room had a strange smell and wasn't very clean, with some hygiene issues. I'd recommend it for the location alone.

It's comfortable and quiet, and the location is really convenient. We had the basics, but the website listed amenities that weren't there, and we couldn't get a second key. For the price, the facilities felt limited, especially in winter. There's also a 40cm drop from the pavement to the car park with no barrier. That's not the property's fault, but it doesn't feel very child-friendly.

The owner was a nice guy and moved me to another room after I reported that mine had no hot water following recent plumbing work. The room was clean and pleasant, and it's an easy walk into central Bright. It gets really cold here in winter, though.

The manager was so welcoming, and the room had a coffee pod machine, which was a nice little extra. My deluxe room was clean and freshly renovated, and the price was very reasonable. A great place to stay on a budget.
