I stayed in one of the rooms in the motel at the back. Nicely maintained original property. Staff were very helpful. There was some construction happening outside on the property that took up a few of the parking spots but didn’t pose an issue. Would definitely stay again.

This is a great property. Close to everything! The restaurant wasn’t open while we were there. There are lots of restaurants in the town and a cute (and delicious) coffee shop ‘Bean There’ I loved the front deck with all the tables for sitting or eating outside. Would have loved to have a couple of arm chairs in the room for sitting/reading and a slightly bigger table. Enjoyed our stay. It’s a beautiful town
