Review Score: 10

Summary: It is an older motel but everything was very clean without any odours. The facilities were fine. The room was a bit on the small side for 4 people but we have small children so it was manageable. The motel was very quiet when we stayed there and felt safe. The staff were friendly and helpful. There is also a very nice cafe right next door which we only got to try the coffee but it was very good. Overall it was a very good experience for the surprisingly low price
