The room was very clean and well laid out. Staff were friendly and courteous. The room itself had some minor damage to interior walls, but that did not have any impact or adverse effect on our stay there. We were overall very happy with the location and facilities.

Great choice in town

We enjoyed our stay in this safe and clean motel. The restaurant was very good and even provided take-away meals so that we could utilise outdoor facilities. The overall service was excellent only marred by delayed check-in due to staff shortages.
