The property is surrounded by small shops. Once inside the reception area, we found very friendly staff who were able to help us navigate the property and also provided restaurant recommendations in the area. They also provided to each adult a complimentary welcome drink at the bar. The style of the motel is awesome...lots of great updates! The room was a nice size. ##### Mia Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl Oct 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is very nice.

Rooms beautifully renovated. Clean and comfortable. Outside areas clean and attractive. Lovely seating areas. Pool looked nicenut not heated and too cold to use this time of year. There are nearby eating options but we stayed on a Sunday night so they were limited. Rooms are a bit pricey, especially as there is no breakfast provided, not even a few snacks. You do get a free drink in the bar.There was coffee in the lobby, but that wasn't great. It is situated on a very busy, noisy road but our room was far enough away that we got a good night's sleep. ##### Carolyn Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeanine Aug 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely old town experience, clean well kept property with lots of charm.

The staff was extremely nice and helpful. We loved the bagel & coffee shop next door! The only drawback is that traffic can be a bit noisey in the later hours on the weekend but we were still able to get a goodnight’s rest. I would definitely consider staying here again! ##### Silvia Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Kaitlin Oct 13, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities Place is an old hotel that was updated. Everything seemed OK but the room had a funny smell, but the longer we stayed seemed like the worst that old moldy musky smell became. Was like as if you were living in a basement that was once flooded. We left early the last night and let the staff know they did call and apologize, which was nice. But for the price it cost to stay I don’t think we’ll be back at this hotel ever. ##### Kaitlin Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best sleep ever!
