Clean facilities, a friendly host and a great night's sleep due to being lovely and quiet. Lovely grapevines add a lovely vibe. Due to lack of suitable street lighting and no visibly-lit motel sign on a service road meant we had considerable trouble finding our motel upon our return at 11.30pm.

My only slightly negative reaction was that the room & bathroom were cramped. The bed was in excelent condition. We'd stay overnight there again.
