I guess I'm a little young to be seen as a seasoned traveller, but then again, I am from out of town. So for what it's worth, as far as Motel Village goes, I've had good luck at the Holiday Inn Express (Banff Trail, right off Highway 1). It doesn't have a restaurant in it of course, but I don't think any of the hotels in that area do. There's a pub on the north side of Motel Village, a strip mall with Joey's Only and a Dairy Queen, and there's a Phil's and a Denny's on the south side of the area, as I recall. Farther east I have stayed at the Sheraton on 32nd, which is north of Highway 1 but very good last time I was there, and I expect they have all your creature comforts. My condolences regarding your mother-in-law.
