For an old place, clean and cheerful. Heating woefully inadequate as evidenced by previous occupant setting a/c on 30c ( the max possible) I poo poo’d them as soft but soon found out the heater is woefully inadequate. I am from a cold area and very cold tolerant. Shame as rest was fine.

Warm and cosy

Didn’t meet the owner but communication was easy (phone) and everything was done as promised. Clean facilities and heating worked very well (visiting winter). Did not use the restaurant but it seemed popular as it was busy. Quiet area. Easy access to walk or drive into town.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was a comfortable stay though a bit cold in the first night, tge aur con took a while to heat the room which was quite spacious. The Aircon was a bit high up the wall and I think this makes it hard for hot air to the control over the cold air. I had to wear my scarf and short jacket inside till bedtime. Cold aurveas always wafting in my face , even if we turn the heating up to 28 degrees. Room had a decent microwave and utensils and crockery but no stove top which is not very necessary for a short trip. The nice touch was the dark grey washer for make up removal, very practical, instead of using the white washers. The resto attached to the hotel is great but closed on weekends but we did enjoy our Friday dinner there, the blue fried rice was a delight and staff for both hotel and restaurant werevery friendly and customer oriented. Overall we still had a pleasant stay.
