Smokig should be not permitted near accommodation.

Excellent check in. Friendly staff. Close to shopping and other businesses. Room was clean. However there was a guest in the room next to us (Room 9) who constantly smoked. The second hand smoke came directly into our room via the batroom vented window. Patrons should NOT be allowed to smoke so close to others and a designated smoking area should be allocated with signage near every room.

Bed comfy, good sized room. Carpet was sticky underfoot, room had a strong chemical smell. Obviously cleaned, perhaps not 'rinsed'. Couldn't turn hand basin taps off properly. Towels and linens clean.

Very old style motel attached to a tavern/hotel. Minimal facilities, no fridge, bare basic table and chairs, one glass in a 3 person room. Bed was comfortable, shower was hot, tv worked, so it was good for a one night stay between travelling long distances.
