Loved this motel! The management and staff were very welcoming and helpful. The room was clean, big and warm when we arrived and the bed was super comfy with an electric blanket! Restaurant and bar on site and easy access and parking. Highly recommended.

I booked the room based on queen bed but it was a double. We are very tall people so it was not comfortable. Had I known it was a double bed, I wouldn’t have booked this hotel.

For one night away it had all the amenities we could need. The bathroom could have done with a bit of updating as the toilet seat had marks from lots of use and the fan in the bathroom was very loud and needed replacing. Other than that the room was good for a night away and close to local food places and the Japanese dayspa.

Staff were so friendly, the restaurant was really nice and the parking was right at the front door of the room. The room had a great heater and a microwave. There were different types of pillows so it’s easy to get one that suits. The area was really quiet

High quality motel
The room was very spacious and comfortable. Only issue was the deep spa bath with shower over it. The glass screen and door made it inaccessible for us. I would definitely stay again just request a walk in shower.
