An honest motel that does not pretend to be something it isn't. Exceptional location with good off-street parking. We wanted something clean and comfortable and did not mind if it was old and basic and we found exactly what we wanted. Pick up and drop off for our island tour was from the front door. Excellent coffee and restaurants surround the location. We left very happy campers.
