Clean accommodation although a little dated. If it is just a stopover you need then this is perfect. A shopping centre is also nearby making it convenient.

Staff are great, friendly and accommodating really helped when i requested an extra night. Parking is a bit tight especially when peeps take up 2 spots with boats and camper trailers but there is on street parking in front. Great to have a pool. Room was clean and in good condition. Great bathroom (nice big tub etc). A good experience and i would go back. Thank you!
