We were late but my cousin checked in for us. We booked a total of 4 rooms. The receptionist/owner was rude and obnoxious and blatently said when you leave shut the door and leave the TV on the wall. Little does he know we could by 1 million of those TV's. We wont be back.

This motel has seen better days, it’s a good place for just a stop-over, but it’s dated. Could do with airco. Bed was ok and the place was clean. Restaurant was closed. Parking was a bit fiddly.
