Very old style motel attached to a tavern/hotel. Minimal facilities, no fridge, bare basic table and chairs, one glass in a 3 person room. Bed was comfortable, shower was hot, tv worked, so it was good for a one night stay between travelling long distances.

For a budget motel it was excellent. Clean, tidy, amenities good, comfortable bed, easy parking, friendly and efficient staff. The only downside is that it is not close to highway access, but for all other guests, would highly recommend
