I think this review has been mis-represented OR this guest may have been travelling & have our Motel confused with another one. We have just finished replacing all of our Curtains & completed a deep clean before their arrival. Other guests that have stayed at the same time commented "Updated clean great bedding and the nicest owners you could hope for'"We are very disappointed, if Janine had come to the Office as we live on-site, we could have addressed any issues whilst she was here.

The room was fairly spacious for just an overnight stopover. The proprietor was very friendly and gave very good advice regarding places to relax & eat, which were all within easy walking distance. The only very slight downside was the water saving showerhead which was a tad too miserly.
