Staff were welcoming and friendly. Room was clean and tidy , the jug in our room was broken and there were no spare jugs in the laundry room etc , therefore we had to wait for staff to start work for the day before we could get a replacement ( a minor thing but quite annoying). Overall we have stayed at the motel quite a lot and have always enjoyed it .👍
