We were attending a wedding in the area so this Motel was in a convenient location. Ensuite very tiny and if we were large built people, we would have had trouble using the toilet as there was a wall 12 inches away from the toilet seat. Otherwise the place was great.

Charged my Credit Card in Advance without Auth

Not happy at all with this hotel. They charged my card two days in advance of arriving despite the booking being “pay at property”. The accommodation was pretty average on top of that. Would not stay again.
