My only slightly negative reaction was that the room & bathroom were cramped. The bed was in excelent condition. We'd stay overnight there again.

Quick stop for a break, twin room was ok, neat and tidy. Bed was ok, towels were great! Only issue was the couple of smokers sitting outside the rooms, with that stink wafting into the non smoking room... Not the fault of the motel, would be great if they moved further away than right next to the doors.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Clean facilities, a friendly host and a great night's sleep due to being lovely and quiet. Lovely grapevines add a lovely vibe. Due to lack of suitable street lighting and no visibly-lit motel sign on a service road meant we had considerable trouble finding our motel upon our return at 11.30pm.
