A convenient location
We were only using the motel for a one night stay but it was good for the purpose. The motel is located a little away from the main road so it was quiet and an easy stroll to the main street of town where there were choices for an evening meal

Central location. Forecourt was a little slippery due to persistent rain. Room was clean and well appointed.

Overall great value for the price. PROS: - Generally clean and well presented room. - Easily walkable to the town and other tourist activities. - Tea & coffee provided in room. CONS - Arrived at just after10am and had to call for someone to come to reception. - The bathroom exhaust was filthy and the thick drippings of dust.

About what you would expect of a motel in their price range, but the bathroom needs a serious upgrade, very hard to adjust the shower temperature to a steady heat, the lighting in the room and bathroom was very minimal and dim. The breakfast menu did not include eggs in any offering.
