Liked: Cleanliness
Whilst a bit dated, the room was very large, clean and comfy. It was a bit tricky to use the pool as it was locked when I went to use it and was told that only the owner had a key. I chose this hotel because of the heated pool. Check out was at 10am, yet staff knocked on the door to clean it at 9.40, a bit weird.

The owner was delightful and so accommodating. Was great to know they were also pet friendly for next time. My kids loved the Indoor Pool and great local options nearby to eat at. Very clean and my room was a decent size for three of us.

The motel was adequate. It was very dated and in need of some repairs and upkeep inside and out. Our toilet started to leak after a couple of uses during the night and we had to put towels down to soak up the water.
