Clean room, sufficient facilities, helpful reception, quiet area. Unfortunately just paid for 2 nights when Interislander ferry cancelled our sailing due forecast bad weather. Managed to pull sailing forward but lost second night money. Not Motel fault. Area mixed with lot of commercial around.

I was travelling on my own and felt very safe here. The lady at reception was lovely and it was so good to see a friendly smile after the very long day I had gone through. I slept well for the two nights I was there. Will stay again.
