Staff are so wonderfully friendly. Recommend staying here but fear doing that would make it harder to stay there again because they will always be booked out. Great location. Tidy rooms. Definitely will stay here again.

Friendly staff, clean rooms. We stayed in the room with the spa. The room was nice, a bit outdated and the bathroom could do with a reno but for the price, it was fantastic.
