Great place and super clean! Location is great and super close to a good pub and an IGA. Staff was super friendly and very accommodating to our needs! Only two nickpicks are that the TV is too far away from the sofa and the bed was too soft for me (but that's just personal preference).

First time stay. Won't be the last. Great location, large room and comfortable bed. I appreciated the ability to warm up some food, that the tea/coffee station was well stocked and the smart-tv was large and integrated some hotel amenities. I further appreciated the direct access to the pub next door and had a couple great meals there. This hotel has decent parking and easy walking access to loads of things someone staying in the area might want to access.
