Great motel location

Liked: The staffs n the boss were really friendly n helpful. And the location was great as there were several attractions nearby. The facilities were a plus, with the multi stoves and heater bathroom too. Will come during our next visit.
Disliked: Parking was alittle tough as the space allocated was tight.Manuving down the driveway was a good test to see how skillful the driver is.

Excellent for the price.

Liked: It had everything I needed. Iron, hairdryer, cooking facilities, space, the carpark was right outside my door. It was quiet. Best part was the bed was super comfy.
Disliked: The room needed some repairs. Its OK though, I made a list :) The place could definitely use a renovation however they have made it the best they could with what they have. For the price, its excellent

Enjoyable and great location

Liked: The unit we stayed in was warm and in a good location. Walked to town if we needed something and it had a pool which was used frequently.I enjoyed coming back from being out most of the day to the rubbish emptied and towels changed even though they didn't need to be.
Disliked: A bit out dated but hey it was clean and spacious for the 3 of us.
