Great spot near the center of town. Clean and quiet, and while not a modern place it has been refurbished and is very clean, nicely painted and a quiet stay. Oh and Karen at reception was very nice and welcoming.

I knew I wasn't staying in a 5 star joint when I booked, but the room was clean and comfortable and big for one person. It was also convenient to walk to the pub for an evening meal and a drink. I'd stay there again.

After booking in and arriving at short notice I was promptly provided with my key and the breakfast details. Breakfast the next day was freshly prepared and the room and breakfast combo was good value for money. I would stay here again and have recommended the motel to others.
