Quiet restful place

Great place to stay. Quiet! The desk manager had closed for the night and so we had to ring and she was more than happy to quickly check us in, get everything sorted and was exceeding friendly and accommodating. No complaints! Price was also excellent.

Smashing little Motel

Very friendly family run motel. Absolutely spotless. Well equipped and so quiet. Amazing shower. Lots of small restaurants near by and private parking less. A little gem in the middle of nowhere.
