Our winter weekend home away from home
This is an extremely nice motel in terms of location (close to all that Manchester has to offer, yet surrounded by wide lawns and views of the countryside)and huge rooms. We have stayed in other Manchester motels, and found much smaller rooms with cramped bathrooms, right on a busy road. However, the thing that really makes this motel stand out is the hospitality of the owners. I noticed the "not recommended" review by chance when I was browsing the Manchester travel section, looking for restaurant informantion. Quite frankly, I was astonished to read that the reviewer felt that the innkeepers were unfriendly. Could that person be talking about a different Weathervane Motel? I do not believe Murvetta and Branco are capable of being anything but warm, welcoming, and charming. I have sat in their lovely lobby by the blazing fire and watched them greet each arrival like an old friend. These two people have been working ceaselessly to restore this motel to its former glory. Every time we go we see additional evidence of that. This year there were new carpets in the rooms, as well as other improvements to the exterior. As far as cleanliness, it is absolutly spotless.
