Great location, room & staff
Pros:

Great location, room & staff. TV was Roku so had good streaming options. I had a room at the back, & despite being on a busy highway, it was quiet enough at night to get a good sleep. Great shower, nice bathroom. Microwave, fridge, & coffee machine. Parking right out front. Issue with microwave sorted straight away - replacement microwave provided

Cons:

This is being super-picky: the bed, while very nice (nice bed clothes) was a little soft for me, compared to other motel / hotel beds. Everyone is different, I guess, & you may find it to be perfect!

Motor lodge with little frills but still beats chain hotels.
Pros:

Good parking, oversized room (main area had bed, kitchenette, and bathroom; standalone bedroom with just a bed + tv; and the entry area was set-up like a living room with softa, table, and tv).

Cons:

Lodge is in the process of new ownership + name change, which made it a little confusing as Google/Lodge name didn't synch up. There were all types of furniture in/near the parking area. Our room had a door to the outside but it was lacking a step down and the back area was barren. The kitchen area was not well appointed but I wasn't looking for a chef kitchen.
