A great little hotel, nicely positioned with a pool and oub attached. Parking is right outside some rooms which could be a little noisy and busy as a bottle shop is also next door. The lucky ones who get a room through the gated area and around the pool have a pwrfect litle secure bubble. Rooms are neat, the bathroom is a little tight space wise.
