Bit noisy towards highway side was main thing, but hey for what we paid - we got for $120 for a Wednesday night sleepover on our travels. The linen was lovely and fresh, good TV was a bonus, great water pressure so a lovely hot shower was appreciated. Scrumptious meal at the tavern- was great to have some wholesome veges and the salmon was delicious. No complaints here.
