8/10 Good
"The staff here were friendly, the location central and the room clean and spacious. It is good value for money. A good, quiet fan was provided to help with the heat, but it was a shame they had to limit the opening of the window. Why can't guests decide how far they'd like the opening? We're not all suicidal or with children. It is good value for money. We found the breakfasts to have plenty of choice and options, but the evening selection and skill of cooking to be rather lacking, e.g. asked for a steak to be medium rare, but it arrived well done. The omelette at breakfast overdone so much it was like rubber."

"Suite 2. Good location - next to a nice pub and another a couple of mins down the road. Good access to waterfalls and mountains. Rooms are nice, aircon, large tv, clean. Downsides - shower head was massive and came out so lightly, bed was slightly dipped in the middle and parking was all taken around our side. Staff lovely and the bacon baguettes for breakfast great."
