Will never understand why motels persist in using the lowest wattage light bulbs they can find which just means ALL of the lights need to be turned on in order to see thus negating any perceived cost saving. The can opener in unit 8 does not open cans.

The motel is close to town with adequate off-street parking. It has double glazing at the front which reduces the road noise. The interior is dated but clean. The staff are friendly.
