Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Although the paintwork needs freshening up, the unit is spotlessly clean. Beautiful clean bedding too. I have stayed at many motels but I was pleasantly surprised when the manager knocked on my door to see if everything was ok and if I “needed anything , coffee?Tea? “ and to just let him know. No hesitation in recommending this facility.

Good basic accommodation that was clean and well presented. It is a bit on the old side but was very comfortable for our 2 night stay and the kitchen had all we needed.

Disliked: Amenities
Easy parking. Good amount of space in room. No hand soap at wash basin. No towel rail. Couch smelt bad, like a damp dog. Door handle out of bathroom very stiff, and took some work to open it again. Almost locked in.
