Happy to recommend this accommodation to all. Friendly staff. Nicely presented room that was clean and had the all necessities you could want. Air conditioning worked well, shower pressure was great with plenty of hot water. Parking right outside the door. Plenty of tea, coffee and optional extras with nice little welcome chocolates on the bed. Good location. Not too noisy.
