Online booking wasn’t working properly, I did receive a call from Motel as to issues. Check in was quick & easy, the room probably needed to be aired out prior to arrival curtains closed no windows open, the bed was very uncomfortable these are small things and saying that I might return, the Internet didn’t work properly where our room was situated. The restaurant food and staff were excellent & very accommodating was a nice way to end the day very relaxing.
