    During his stay at the motel while working in the area, our data technician highlighted several positives: a good sense of safety and security, a comfortable bed, and the host's exceptional accommodation by allowing an early check-in for rest before his late work hours, as well as a convenient late check-out. He said he would be very happy to stay there again in the future.

    The host had endeavoured to give us a quiet room. We also had an allocated car park. Another bonus and the reason we had chosen the motel was that it is beside an EV charger.
