The staff member on front counter was very helpful and friendly. Gave a great tip on where to eat locally. The beds were comfortable. The room was great for a nice sleep after a long day on the road and another ahead. I know hotels can do nothing about smokers, but the only thing that put me off was the smell of cigarette every time we opened the door/went outside.

The only reason I booked this motel was for the onsite restaurant, but it was closed as they can't find a chef. This information was not on its website or anywhere.

Central spot for exploring

Great spot, easy to walk to shops, cafes and pubs. Enjoyed dinner in the restaurant on site too. Bring your earplugs if unable to sleep with trucks passing - we did and all was fine.
