Lovely room and easy to find

Easy to find. Was a spacious room with 1 queen and 1single bed. Comfy beds, hot shower. Big bathroom. Free WiFi but if you wanted Netflix etc you had to use your own account. Kettle, tea, coffee, sugar and toaster. Electric blankets. Heater was good. Indoor heated pool. Staff were helpful and friendly. Easy parking. Motel has a restaurant or you can go to Lazy Moes next door with yummy food.

It's a nice motel, very spacious rooms. I used to hold events here years ago. It is now becoming dated, the rooms need an upgrade and the restaurant they lease too has a 3 star rating so not amazing, however I would still stay here again because I know the place.

Whilst a bit dated, the room was very large, clean and comfy. It was a bit tricky to use the pool as it was locked when I went to use it and was told that only the owner had a key. I chose this hotel because of the heated pool. Check out was at 10am, yet staff knocked on the door to clean it at 9.40, a bit weird.

The owner was delightful and so accommodating. Was great to know they were also pet friendly for next time. My kids loved the Indoor Pool and great local options nearby to eat at. Very clean and my room was a decent size for three of us.
