“Modern motel in close walking distance to the centre of Bright”
The location was excellent. Nice environment with colourful trees. Parking was fine and a close distance to the room. Short walk to the centre of town. Mattresses and pillows were comfy. Nick from the motel was very accommodating. Nice and modern rooms. The bathroom was good and had ample space to place your towels and belongings. Kitchenette had all you needed with glassware, crockery, cutlery, a Delonghi coffee machine with nice tasting coffee (pods). I would recommend this property. Aside from a few minor things it was very convenient.
