“I noted the rooms maintain a good standard of cleanliness, and its location and price point are agreeable; the team seems flexible, willing to rearrange rooms to accommodate groups. However, breakfast appears to have limited options, and booking directly with the motel might offer a better rate. Overall, it seems a practical choice if you manage the reservation directly.”
