The Motel was clean and quiet. The showers were hot and there were places to eat nearby. The complimentary breakfast was excellent. Not just fruit and pasties, but eggs, bacon, sausage and potatoes. I will definitely stay there again in the future.

The staff was nice. We arrived late and left early. However, we did notice the shower drain was a little dirty, and there were stains on the carpet in the room. I was disappointed we didn’t have a microwave since we would be leaving too early to take advantage of the breakfast. They also stopped providing a shuttle to the airport, which I was also sad about. It was convenient. They provided shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. They’re definitely room for improvements.
