A nice room, mostly clean (hairs on the vanity). The shower was scalding hot or freezing cold and was not able to be adjusted in-between. So, no shower after a long day of travel.

Ivor

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The unit was spacious with a separate bedroom with two single beds and a small bath in addition to the shower. The location was ideal with just a short walk to the shopping area. Some maintenance is required. A door on the cupboard under the washbasin almost fell off when opened. Breakfast was supposed to be included, according to the website, but we were told on arrival that no breakfast was available.

Having stayed at this accommodation in the past and had a very enjoyable experience. Booked for 3 nights again which was to include breakfast. On arrival was told they didn't do breakfast anymore, asked for a refund for the breakfast I had paid for, but was ignored. 1st day we asked for the room to be cleaned as on our return in the afternoon nothing had been done. on the 2nd Day we gave. The bed was comfortable but the rest of the room was in a very poor state of needing repairs. Would never here again

Perfectly adequate but not special. Physically cold on arrival. Basic accommodation. Not charming or special, but very nice spa bath, and when you figure out how the heater works, somewhat cosy.

Great position, close to everything, parking next to room, beds were good, aircon worked well. The only downside is dangerous bathrooms. Extremely slippery with water (and especially with soap) on shower and bathroom floor. Not suitable for anyone with any sort of balance issues. There was a warning sign regarding slippery floors, but I was still surprised how slippery they were.
