Older motel but very clean. Comfortable chairs with footrests that you don't find in modern motels. Roomy unit with separate bedroom. Very helpful owner. Parking was under the unit or on the road. We chose the road, the car was safe, and it meant we could park right outside our unit. Close to the motorway for a quick trip to the airport.
