Property was good, staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was a little small but fine for what we needed on our budget. Fridge and microwave in the room which was great. Breakfast was goo, help yourself continental style, no excuse if you left hungry. A bit of a walk in to town but ok if you like a walk.

We felt welcomed on arrival and were given an excellent summary of the area with tips and recommendations. Parking was easy, but not close to our accommodation. Very good location close to many key attractions, and a stop on the free bus loop. Nice pool. Room was compact, but clean with a decent sized bathroom. Nowhere to store or place bags off the floor. Shower was rather weak and needed a shelf near the sink. Bed felt a little old and sleepers rolled together a bit. Breakfast was basic packaged items taken in the room. Understood that the location attracts a higher price, but for around $220 a night these things whould probably have been better.
