"Very basic but comfortable accomodation. Great bathroom and water pressure. Room was a bit dark. Aircon and mini fridge were good and so was parking. My room was missing coffee cups and I was provided one upon request. There was a strange wet stain in the foot of my bed as if someone’s spilt something. Overall good for a brief stay. Conveniently located and close to the shops."
