We had a fantastic stay! The staff were incredibly attentive and welcoming throughout our visit. Although we enjoyed the location, we needed a change of accommodation due to our twin beds and they handled it efficiently. We’re already looking forward to returning! Thank you so much again :)

The room was very clean and well appointed. Recent renovations meant the bathroom was really nice. The room was very quiet even though it was next to the hotel. We were surprised how good it was for the price. However the restaurant prices were higher than expected. The meals from the bar were more reasonably priced, being all $20 there.
