    Reception staff was welcoming. Room Basic but clean and value for money. Was great that there was toaster, kettle, microwave, cutlery. Was quiet and got good night's rest after long drive. And good shower.

    The Owners run the Motel very well. The cleaning lady was excellent at her job. Others staying there were quiet and that made it easier to get my work done.
