Nice and clean tidy property. Thought it was abit strange that they have sky but only numerous sky sports channels. Not everybody enjoys sport watching. You might say we are on holiday why are we watching tv?? Its because the weather was atrocious. Otherwise friendly, clean, super close to town and enjoyed our stay.

Very impressed with how clean the room was. I have not seen a room that clean in a very long time in motels. Extra pillows and extra warm blankets were great. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

We chose it as we were arriving late afternoon and just wanted to walk into town for a meal. The motel suited our needs for just one night.
