Lovely little motel

Room was warm, clean and provided everything we required. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Especially loved the fact that we could park right in front of our room and unpack with ease. There was no official check in/out desk, but staff were walking around and was able to assist. My only complaint was that we didn't stay for additional nights. Lovely location, felt safe. Great restaurant options around the corner!
