Neat and tidy little motel with a nice bit of character. We enjoyed our stay other than the domestic disputes which occurred each night in the room next to ours and whilst this isn't the motels fault not much was done to stop the carry on.

A nice little hotel for the price. Room was very small and bathroom too but it was clean. We stayed 3 nights and I wouldn't really recommend that but for a nights stopover then perfect . Lovely owners . A bit far to walk to town but still doable
