Dated but ok for a convenient one night stay with choice of numerous restaurants nearby. After seven years in boarding school and two years in the Army, I am not the fussiest person around so for me as a solo traveller this trip, it happily sufficed but doubtful that I would bring the bride of 54 yrs along. Can’t speak for other rooms though.

Great staff, value and location. Sadly a few minor things to note: The shower barely got hot enough, You couldnt close the bathroom louvres so it got quite cold it there and the queen side bed is pretty well worn out and sags in the middle.

Beware that Travelocity's website is in US dollars. We got caught out thinking it was in AU dollars. The motel was good and although the bed mattress was dated, it was still OK. The motel is very central.
