The only reason I booked this motel was for the onsite restaurant, but it was closed as they can't find a chef. This information was not on its website or anywhere.

Central spot for exploring
Great spot, easy to walk to shops, cafes and pubs. Enjoyed dinner in the restaurant on site too. Bring your earplugs if unable to sleep with trucks passing - we did and all was fine.
