"Small , clean and cosy with good security entry ,a great communal kitchen with everything you need including air fryer and sandwich prsss, perfect for our stay. The only thing was not overly sound proof as outside noise could be quite loud at times. Not within motel though. Off street Parking spaces are limited. Happy to stay again 👌"
