I loved my stay at the Cottage Mews Motel. I don’t think I would change a thing. The amenities were great, there’s a kitchenette with a small stove and a sink and plenty of dishes if you plan to cook or want to reheat anything. The spa was amazing with very clear instructions. The WiFi was pretty good too. To add on the room was very homey and cute. I would for sure stay again!
