Liked: Cleanliness
Unfortunately it rained
This was a two night stop for us. Arrived late day one, checked in and shown our room. That’s it. Brand new bathroom which was nice. Kitchen, lounge and bedroom all in one large room which is typical motel set up. Bed was ok. Unfortunately the next day it rained all day and we were essentially stuck in the room. Could sit outside apart from the in area where the cars are parked. The best thing it has going for it was the view and the central location for all the eateries and bars.

Location is great. Unfortunately the beds are horribly uncomfortable - both my husband and I woke up with back pain. Won’t be staying here again if I had the choice.

Very modern and nicely appointed room, with a nice view of the mountains (except when it is pouring rain!). Close to everything in the (very small) town. Kitchen has a full sized fridge.
