DO NOT DO IT! A back-packers at a premium with a deceptive description on booking platform. We decided to book a hotel for a 2 night stay over the long weekend, using Expedia, the photos and description were very enticing however in reality are absolutely deceptive. To call yourself is a stretch, please downgrade your accommodation aspect to Motel as it is a more accurate reflection and bookers will know what to expect!. We arrived to see the hotel was attached to a pub, now this not entirely being an issue, however, felt as if being watched by "pub-goers" as you are using the amenities such as the pool would be a bit uncomfortable. Not to mention the rooms surrounding the pool are exposed to the loud noises of the pub, with reception informing us there is loud music until 10pm every night. Another issue we had was the street parking, although the booking site mentioned "street parking available" unfortunately we made the assumption that it was in addition to secured parking. Rooky mistake on our behalf. If you are willing to pay for parking during your stay, leaving your car parked on the street with the potential to be broken into overnight. The Cav is the spot for you!. We decided to book elsewhere and request a refund as we were not comfortable with the high possibility that our car would be vandalized left on the street. We were lucky enough to get only one night refunded as the following day they sent out an SMS informing guests what to expect and after the fact
