Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    We loved that it was old and quirky, the breakfast was to die for beautifully presented. The owners were very helpful when it was time for us to leave for our next destination as we had to a detour due to a slip on the road.

    Lovely motel, all the facilities you need travelling such as a laundry room. The rooms even had an air frier if you wanted to cook. One street back from main high street where there are shops and lovely restaurants. Lovely host at reception and loads of parking exactly what you expect from a motel.

    The motel is situated perfectly for what we wanted which was a trip on The Forgotten World Adventures a 5 minute walk. Lots of local restaurants and we recommend Monsoon Indian on the Main Street again a 5 minute walk. Very quiet for being in town.
