Friendly staff. The motel is showing its age but appropriately priced. Arrived at midnight and staff were ready for us. The room was surprisingly spacious. Definitely a low-key place that’s great for a quick stop overnight.

This was perfect for our stay. There were no frills, the bed was comfortable and the hot water was hot. We came to town for the excellent Crowded House concert at the Ledge. We especially appreciated that we could walk to the show.
