Run by a sweet elderly couple, the bath, kitchenette and linens were very clean. However, the carpeting was not and the facility could use a good freshening up. It is very convenient to everything in Martinborough and was inexpensive.

Colin and Gail are very friendly and helpful and the rooms are warm and comfortable, but could do with an update. A new bed and sofa would add value to this property. However, for the price and location, which allows easy walking to anywherw in town, this property is hard to beat.

The biggest issue is the room booked was NOTHING like what Expedia sold me.
The owner did ring me to advise - alarm bells right there.
Overall clean & tidy, the carpet was yuck and small double bed sofe & lumpy. Really dated overall could do with a freshen up.
End of day you get what you pay for. Was v glad when the morning arrived and we could leave.

Despite some friendly hosts and a very central location, our stay here made us glad we were only staying one night in Martinborough. The dirty carpet, lack of WiFi (which is as advertised to be fair) and numerous bug sightings makes the Motel feel very outdated and quite uncomfortable. Also, while of course not the Motel’s fault, the fire station across the road blaring a siren in the middle of the night like the Blitz is raining down on you made our night less than ideal. While I understand the stay is cheap for the area, compared to what we have received across the country for the same price we were disappointed, and I would recommend paying a bit extra for some of the beautiful other stays in Martinborough. The cheap price and location is the only thing saving this from a one star review.

Comfortable stay for a good price

Had a comfortable two night stay at this small motel. The room was quite spacious, and the beds and couch was comfortable. The shower had good pressure and worked well. The hosts provided 2 heaters to make sure the room was warm, and pre-heated the room prior to arrival. The decor of the motel is a little dated, but everything was clean and in good condition. The motel is well located, being a very short walk from the main square. The motel was reasonably priced. The managers were friendly and welcoming.

Good basic room in a great location.
Great service from the owners.
Hot water for showers was a bit in short supply in our room, it helped to shower at different times.

Clean comfortable with good location

It was a comfortable place, friendly host, great location. The double room was perfect for me as a solo traveler. I could see if being crowded for two people though. As others said, the facilities are a little dated and could use some upgrades. But clean, comfortable and right on my price point. Would stay there again. No wifi though

We had booked through expidia and all was great, even messaged motel to question about an earlier arrival (as we had to get ready for a wedding at 1pm) so communications we toing and froing We think the cancelation error occurred because we had to cancel our C/Card last year and obviously payment didn't go through to motel at that moment, which they then ASSUMED we had canceled. A quick call to query/curtesy call about our stay would have ensured we were still coming! It was Easter and we feel they were quick to rent the room for longer than the one night we had requested. Not happy as Colin did'nt even bother to help in any way, just a straight, NO You canceled nothing available, sarcastic good luck in finding something else.

Depends on what you want

If you like a nice room, you’ll probably be disappointed. If you like a cheap room, it’ll probably work for the night.

The pros: Low price, close to the main square (only a block away, and a small one at that), friendly owners
The cons: Quite aged building/room/equipment, no wifi, limited outlets.

Great Budget Choice in the centre of town.

This is a great budget choice if you want to stay in the centre of Martinborough. No frills and needs updating, but it is clean, fit for purpose and the owners are very friendly and helpful. Would recommend.
