Management went out of their way ensuring we were happy. Great to be able to have a laundry available to guests. We ended up staying for 3 nights instead of just 2.

Easy to find and close to town. Older but cosy… all electrical items worked well! A big step into the room might be difficult for elderly folk. Great stay, although we arrived late and no one was in the office when we left!
