Nice accommodation in Hay.

We were in room 9 with parking right at the door. We have stayed at the motel a couple of times now and always have found it enjoyable. It's positioned in the middle of town and has a hotel next door that has great meals. The bed was comfortable and all things were in working order. It's also quiet. We would recommend the Nicholas Royal Motel to anyone travelling to Hay.
