Only stayed the one night but the room was excellent, clean and comfortable and had a great view from our lounge area but that did mean that walkers could look in from the roadway.

Well located, quiet, adequate comfort level. I would expect a motel to have a far better equipped kitchen than simply a toaster, microwave, electric wok and sandwich press - with no pots or pans.
