Good value room and breakfast
Would have rated it 5-stars were it not for a bit of noise from passing heavy vehicles - not enough to disturb unless a light sleeper. Simple but comfortable motel, with bonus of buffet continental breakfast at very reasonable cost. Bit out of town so need own tranport. Would definitely stay again.

Wasn’t sure if I would arrive in time for check in (and I didn’t), but the team were amazing, super communicative. They made sure I was able to get in no matter the time I arrived. The room was lovely. Just what I needed after a long drive, and better than I expected for the price, especially during an event! Was a great stay, will book again.

Bring Earplugs
Just needed a nice little motel for the night. 60s style which has been renovated except for the A/C and the door locks.
Old rattler window A/C, so noisy that we had to turn it off, but with out any opening windows it was very stuffy.
Door locks need replacing, not secure at all.
