The motel features 23 comfortable rooms in various sizes. The rooms included in the price all offer a private bathroom and a small kitchenette equipped with crockery, cutlery, a microwave, an electric frying pan, a fridge, an electric kettle, and a toaster – everything you need to prepare breakfast and light meals.

You’ll be greeted with a warm smile at reception, where your hosts are happy to share their local knowledge and offer excellent suggestions for outings and experiences in the area.
