Enjoyed our stay here , place was very clean and tidy . Friendly staff. Good location . Clean pool and spa . I’m from the coast so I knew my way around town but it was good to see that they had a info folder in the room full of information on things you can do in the township and also had a list of local restaurants/food recommendations a lot of other useful information. Over the past couple of years I have noticed that alot of other motels no longer provide these but I find them very useful so I liked the fact that they provided this. Our room was the perfect size for us . I would definitely stay again
