It's about to undergo renovation which is great. At the moment it's somewhat run down but was absolutely fine for an overnight stay. Staff at reception really nice and welcoming.

This is a budget hotel and is excellent for just that reason. It was perfect for what I needed. Quiet with a restaurant on site. I had an upstairs room tucked away at the back and had a lovely view of the escarpment from a very private balcony which was a bonus and with a table and chairs made it a nice extra space. I wouldn’t recommend an upstairs room for anyone with toddlers as the railings are not designed for keeping a child in. Clean on the small side room with the basics available at a reasonable price. The managers clearly keep an eye on making it a quiet stay. Just what I needed,

TV did not work. Owner rang enquiring what time we would arrive as they would not be there at 5.30pm. Really!!!!!. What happened to the idea of relief staff.Both owners were sitting at counter presenting an inhospitable and intimidating environment. Will bever go back there and I am telling everyone I know to do the same.

Not great unless you don’t mind a dodgy shower, wasn’t clean and really needs an uplift. But was only there one night and slept ok, if you’re a light sleeper may be a problem
