10/10 Excellent

This is a motel in excellent condition. Recently refurbished and kept clean and tidy. It's quiet considering it's in town. We stopped here twice, first ti.e direct from the airport, 2nd to break a journey. Both times the guy on reception was very welcoming, offered milk with no prompting. 1st ti.e Expedia had failed to pay them despite taking the money from me! He was so relaxed about it he even apologised to me for the inconvenience and made the whole experience hassle free, such a nice guy!
