Was met with a very friendly owner when we arrived. Great that he has the facilities for - and offers - complimentary charging your car. My rental did not have the type 2 charging cable on board, so he provided us with one. The room was large, clean and comfy, beds also very nice. The motel is easy to be reached. Recommended, for sure.

Older style motel from the outside. Nice that it had a small pool ( Better for summertime, but nice all the same) It had been done up nicely on the inside. Really spacious and had everything you need.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The apartment was quite large with a table for eating and writing and an extra comfortable chair. The motel is quaint. The apartments look like half-timbered houses. Probably the reason for the reference to Tudors in its name.
