Really impressed with this motel. Close to everything, easy check in and parking, spacious clean room and really friendly staff. Basic breakfast included was so convenient. I thought it would be noisy but with the door shut I didn’t hear any road traffic at all. Would stay here again for sure.

The GML was clean and well appointed. We had a two bed apartment which, whilst simple, had a small and usable kitchen, comfy beds and plenty of space. The staff were welcoming and friendly.
