“Comfortable, cheerful and on budget.”
Bright and cheerful motel in a great location. Easy walking to the main hub. Bed was very comfortable and a proper king which is always a bonus. Plenty of seating indoors and out with a lovely private patio to relax on. Loved the addition of stools for our suitcases. Very clean and easy to find toaster and kettle etc. Really liked the handwash and shampoo etc provided as well. Parking is onsite.
