Wouldnt stay again unfortunately
Pros:

The location is great and convenient.

Cons:

The rooms were not very clean at all. We had a footprint on our sheets on the bed, the hand towel in the bathroom was dirty looked like it had been reused, cobwebs and dust. Couldn’t pull curtains all the way across the metal on them were falling off. No water in the fridge or milk for coffee never been to a motel that doesn’t provide these things. The beds are extremely uncomfortable.

Good choice with very good restaurant next door
Pros:

I returned after a visit about a month ago, so obviously liked it very much! Please see my earlier review. Just want to add that the food at Arcadia Village Hotel next door was every bit as good as last time.

Cons:

The room could do with sprucing up a bit.
