A good value stay

We were very happy we stayed here and would stay again. The staff went out of their way to help us and make us feel we were valued guests. We enjoyed the restaurant as well. (We expect it is better to take the rooms that are further away from the road.)
Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022
