"We found this place quite good for our needs. It was a decent budget hotel with the added benefit of a basic breakfast available, which is rare these days in budget accommodation. The staff were very helpful, and the location is just within walking distance of town, though better off driving. We would be happy to stay here again."

"Everything was up to par except all the black hair and pubic hair all over the bathroom. We even had to clean out the drain of the hair too. Hot tub looked a little green but the staff was kind, the room was fine otherwise. "
