The rooms are older and dated, and not in the best condition. But it is rather large, I stayed in the rooms with queen bed and pullout couch, the pullout is not comfortable at all, the bed was nice. Everything was ok, not super clean but clean enough for most

Very clean, friendly staff, convenient location., excellent dining facilities. Breakfast in the sunshine on the patio was wonderful. But couldn’t get tv to work and no instructions provided, fridge had no freezer for ice cubes or freezer packs but was itself so cold it froze our milk in lumps. And either their phone doesn’t work or they don’t answer it or emails, so how do you get in touch?

Rooms are ok. Staff not readily available. Asked for an extra blanket as there wasnt one for the pull out bed and we still didnt receive one. They just provided a thin sham/duvet cover as a blanket. Unfortunately restaurant was closed both days. The hotel is okay but not for the cost, its expensive for what is provided.

Overpriced

It is a standard "motel" with small rooms that are a bit tired. For what you get it is very overpriced.

Restaurant saves it

It was what I would expect out of a motor lodge. At one time someone put a hole in the bedroom wall, and they patched it and just left it unpainted and unsmoothed, looked shabby. The hot water never got hot in the bathroom sink unless I ran the shower on hot to bring it in, that was odd. The restaurant however is a saving grace, it was very good.
