An older facility, but I have never stayed in a motel, hotel or other accommodation, that has been as clean and neat. Also, just the smaller things make a difference, coffee, milk, biscuits and mints 😃 And of course all the additional items you would hope and expect to see, but don’t in some others.

White crisp sheets!
We have always found Colonial motels reliable and this was no exception. Everything was very clean and well presented including crisp white sheets Minor gripe was that bed needed slight re-positioning to facilitate access to sockets for charging phone etc. Can recommend local RSL for dinner
