Similar tiny house. Bed is comfortable to sleep, bath room reasonable clean but very small, shower area 80 x80 cm, room is clean and looks new colours. Noise is ok coz in 60 zone. I think is good for solo traveller, just one N and moves on.i have a good sleep.

My only slightly negative reaction was that the room & bathroom were cramped. The bed was in excelent condition. We'd stay overnight there again.

Clean facilities, a friendly host and a great night's sleep due to being lovely and quiet. Lovely grapevines add a lovely vibe. Due to lack of suitable street lighting and no visibly-lit motel sign on a service road meant we had considerable trouble finding our motel upon our return at 11.30pm.
