The motel grounds were all over grown. No air con or even a fan for heat. Couldn't find a pool. We left and did not stay. Great for back Packers

"Not a total loss"

5.0

The location was good for visiting the caves.

The room was quite warm when we checked in and there was only a fan to cool it down. Also, it was very near the highway and the road noise continued all night.
