Good location, close enough to walk to all the restaurants but far enough away you don't get the noise.

Recently stayed for two nights. The price was great and the staff as previously experienced incredibly friendly The room was well serviced clean and comfortable bed . I would stay again. However The Motel itself was sadly empty possibly due to some love to the building itself required and areas roped off on the balcony. .
