This was my 2nd time staying at this motel, at I was just as pleased as the previous time. Outstanding value for money, super clean, quiet, and nicely decorated with great facilities inside. Comfy bed with plenty of pillows, and air-conditioning (heat-pump). Also has full SKY TV, so no missing out on your favorite shows if you have to stay in, even FoxNews! I plan on coming back again and again.

We stayed for two nights in the two bedroom unit July 2024. So spacious, seperate fully equipped kitchen, large bathroom, big bedrooms (comfy beds!). Cleanliness was impressive (spotless!), lovely modern upgrades. Great parking. Owners are lovely. No need to look anywhere else, this is the one to book!
