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.

Wasn't what I thought I had booked. No cutlery, few plates, only 3 cups, 1 tea towel in the kitchen. Microwave oven is so old, 1 hand towel and no handwash in bathrooms, gaps top bottom and sides of bedroom door so light got through. There was about 10 people staying here at the time.

locks on toilet door doesn't lock, u push the button in & it just pops back out...shower very temperamental. One room had two single beds together but was broken in the middle as a leg was missing. It would appear they need a handyman to check things over & it would be a great stay
