Clean, cosy and comfortable rooms. Rooms were well set out and each room had a clean, separate bathroom with hygienic dispensers for soap, shampoo, lotion etc. Mattresses were comfortable and linen was crisp and clean. Heater in main bedroom was very noisy, we left it off overnight. Heater in kids room was quiet and efficient. Quilt on beds were too light, we felt a bit cold on waking in the morning. All in all a good place to stay and very affordable.

Liked the location. Didn't like the room. Very old n run-down. Toilet looked renovated but the whole toilet tends to get wet after shower although there's a shower door.

We liked this clean and comfortable motel which suited us, a family of 3 perfectly. The owners were especially helpful when we had discussions with them regarding the various places of interest and reasonably priced restaurants for dinner. The small touches of thoughtfully providing fresh Dairy Farmers milk in pods as an accompaniment to coffee/tea plus little packets of biscuits were much appreciated. It may not cost much but such thoughtfulness goes a long way in keeping your guests happy.
