Just ok
The room was comfortable enough, and clean. The restaurant was closed for renovations which seemed unusual during the Christmas and New Years holidays. The internet did not work at all, even after being re-set in the office. The motel is older and heat/cooling are only provided via portable units. Clean and comfortable had to be enough for this stay.

A handy base for the railway excursion.
A fairly typical motel room. Bedlinen was clean and the bed comfortable. We ate at the restaurant and the food was delicious.

It's an old motel. The bedding, sheets, towels were all clean but the motel itself is quite old and visible on the inside in the rooms.
