Loved this place, What a great little motel! It was amazing not to mention the most comfortable beds we’ve slept in other than our own home. The extra lockoff bunk room for our family of 6 was a pleasant surprise addition as well!! The staff was also super friendly

Overall pretty good -

Room initially given had no water pressure, but was moved promptly to an adjacent room. Overall pretty clean and staff pleasant and prompt to help at all times. Shower in second room remained an issue - shower head did not fit in holder properly so moved around when in use and temperature control fluctuated quite a bit Property quiet and central for many sights and surrounded by plenty of food options. Again, staff never an issue - always friendly and happy to help, just facilities need a little work.

A lovely boho style motel. Very clean. Spacious. Very quiet air con/heating. Check in/out is in the bar which is lovely, but when we arrived we were told we got a free glass of wine, so we put our bags in our room and came back and got a glass of wine each. When we went to leave to get food, we were asked to pay - I said, ‘but you said we got a free glass of wine?’ And he said, “yes, one glass” I asked, “oh, not one glass each?” He said no. I found this slightly odd but ok, apart from the fact that we were booked in for two nights, paying the same price each night, so surely that should equate to 2 free glasses? This isn’t a complaint, just my opinion. Everything else was totally spot on and we would definitely stay again.
