The motel is right in the middle of town and was perfectly located for our needs. It was also very affordable. We knew we would arrive later in the evening and the office would not be staffed, so we were told beforehand how to get the key to our room which worked out very well. The room was spacious and had several amenities. The only suggestion I have is to update your bedding and mattresses. They were sufficient but worn.

It was great. Weird arrangement of the very small shower and toilet being either side of the shared kitchen/bathroom. Other than that it was roomy and comfortable. I accidentally left some drinks, bought as a gift. The cleaner came in as we were packing and we left him to it. Disappointed they didn't phone me and let me know l'd left it as l was nearby most of the day. Check in was easy, staff lovely and very friendly. Location is great and it was very quiet. Girls in the coffee shop next door were much more interested in their social life than serving. Coffee was great but unless you want to wait awhile maybe go elsewhere.
