The room was spotless and very comfortable. Check in was quick and easy. Despite being on SH1 there was no noise in the evening and we slept well.

Colonial Lodge Motel
Our two bed unit was clean and well appointed. It was well out of the way of the main units so it was quiet. The kitchen had everything we needed.
