    My ratings are always relative to the amount charged, so as this is a fairly budget motel, it rates very highly. Everything you need, and the bathroom has been updated. Kitchen has a modern 2-ring hob. Appears well kept and furnishings are...

    Very clean. Very friendly and helpful owner. Being domesticated, I was looking for somewhere to hang the tea towel! A couple of clothes hooks in the bathroom would be handy. Great place to stay!
