What guests say
8.9 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 170 guest reviews
The Yardarm Motel earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment, with guests repeatedly praising its cleanliness, charming breakfast offering, convenient location, and warm ownership. The main caveats are practical: rooms and bathrooms are compact, walls are thin, and the self-check-in format means staff contact is minimal — a pro for some, a minor miss for others.
