The staff are exceptionally hard working. Very friendly, polite, helpful. Their English language is limited, yet they still go out of their way to make guests feel welcome and comfortable. It is an old establishment, yet the cleanliness was excellent and up to my high standards. We felt safe and comfortable. I am Autistic and sensitive to lights and noise, neither were a problem. It was quiet and we had good nights sleeps. Across the road from the beautiful scenic river which is lovely to walk by. Close to town and attractions.

Great place to stay

The comfort and convenience of our unit, the Garden Suite, was very very much better than its street apeal. My partner has trouble walking, she has had a stroke, but the parking next to the step free food and the very convenient layout and comfort of our unit made our stay a real pleasure.
