An actual reception office with friendly proprietors rather than the impersonal keypad check-in that seems to be the norm now. Walking distance to shops, dining and wineries.

The Motel room was extremely dusty and my son ended up being ill so we departed in the middle of the night as no-one could sleep and he kept sneezing and coughing. His face was swollen and eyes sore. We were also rushed to get there as the Managers were going out and wanted to close up early. The rang on the way wanting to know when we would arrive. I felt that the reception was not very friendly and wanted the money quickly, no regard to customer service or care just pay up, remember your key so you don't inconvenience us and that was it. Not very welcoming. Too me it was a waste of money and I will think twice about staying there again
