Wonderful and friendly hosts, they were the best. The motel was also clean, well maintained and had all basic amenities. The pool was also awesome, though its small.

Thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay. Rooms cozy & clean & bed comfortable. Paul & Tracy were great hosts. Close to city centre & eating places. Enjoyed a tasty home cooked breakfast before continuing on our travels. Would recommend as a great place to stay. Well done guys.

I have been staying here every month or 2 for a couple of years now.
Martin and Cathy are awesome. Quick to help, accomodating.
The food is always beautifully cooked. Great steak! Beds are comfy, showers are great.
If you are looking for well priced, simple and relaxed with friendly people... stay here.
Get the steak. 😉

Rooms were clean and comfortable with toaster, microwave and kettle. We stayed here for a week in December so the pool was very welcome. Catherine and Martin are the perfect hosts and both are accomplished chefs. Nothing was too much trouble and we were made to feel very welcome.
