More than I expected!
Nice big room with a private little courtyard out back. Well appointed room kitchenette and bathroom. Really good to have a proper walk-in shower that worked well too! Many hotels have the shower over bath which I find a bit annoying. Overall was great and recommend!

It would benefit by having room nominated parking spots. Shower is too low for average height people. Otherwise a pleasant place to stay. Cheers

I was surprised at the size of the room we'd booked. It was lovely and we were very happy with it. We booked the Studio with the Queen Bed. It was sweet to find a chocolate bar in the room.
