Room was clean and had a good bed. Struggled to locate the motel when we first arrived as it was dark but figured it out eventually. We checked in as a late arrival, unfortunately this meant we couldn’t arrange for a hob for dinner. Job was available from reception but not when we arrived, would have been good to have this in the room with some more utensils/equipment. For a short stay this would be ok, kitchen facilities might be a struggle for extended stays.
