It's a budget motel so there is only so much you can expect but for the price we paid this is very good value for money. Plenty of choice for breakfast, a pool and hot tub, the room looked like it has recently been decorated. Very much recommended and we would definitely stay here again.

My family and I had a nice stay here during Spring Break. We really liked that the pool was nicely heated and the wifi was working much better than when we last stayed in December 2025. Would love to see some more breakfast options added such as hot items and hot chocolate for the kids.
