Restaurant was closed, toilet wouldn’t stop flushing unless you pulled the knob up, bathroom sink continues to run, no exhaust fan in bathroom, toilet paper small squares you pull from a box. To fill the kettle you have to use a small class as it doesn’t fit u der the bathroom sink faucet.

Location was convenient as we were visiting relatives close by. Didn't find out until half way through our short stay that daily room makeup was not included, although we had a standard motel room. When booking we requested a quiet room & found that two of our five nights stay there were very noisy motel guests staying above our room, basically partying most of the night or talking very loud until late in the night, making it very hard to sleep. Ground floor location was good & that we could park directly outside our room.

It is dated but it is comfortable. the only downside is not the right cutlery or glasses to drink out of in the room. Had dinner the first night at the onsite restaurant food was good, however then I could not have the left overs later when I was hungry because no cutlery in the room. A chair on the balcony would be nice as well. Overall good though right price good location.
