Thank you for your high review. We are glad your stay cosy and very clean. For future guests, we are located on a side-street so that noise is kept to a minimum. Ground floor units, off-street parking is available. Beach and Lake 10 minutes walk.

The property was fine but apparently they allow pets. Unfotunately we had a bad experience - the guests next door arrived with 2 large dogs, they locked them in the motel room and then left, abandoning the dogs. The dogs barked and howled for the next one and a half hours until their owners returned. We were quite worried because of the distress of the dogs. And it totally destroyed the quiet evening we were looking forward to after a days driving. Also both the wifi networks provided were very weak and kept dropping out so weren't usable.

Thank you for your review. We have a one dog policy, some guests are telling us incorrectly that they have one dog. Please when you visit us again remember to call our afterhours business number if you are inconvenienced by animals. They are required to be supervised at all times whilst on the premises. Very few rooms are pet friendly.

Proximity of the places where I want to go to. Close to highway but quiet place to stay in. Affordability for overnight stay.
