I love this place!!!! It is so cosy and comfortable. Has everything you need. Cosy bed,. Great heating. Homely. I also love how they still provide little separate shampoos, conditioners, body creams, plunger coffee etc unlike a lot of motels that go budget and use dispensers. Just the little touches that make it feel like care has been taken to make you welcome. Will stay here again and again. Plus pet friendly.
