Room was clean, quiet, and pet friendly! Just the bare essentials, but's that was all we required. Staff was very friendly . It's a shame that the grounds are littered with many cigarette butts, left by rude smokers.

After finally figuring out how to get to the hotel, it was acceptable. The room was fairly small, but the bed was comfortable, and wifi worked well. The room did have a large bathtub that was really nice, and the towels were better quality than expected. A decent value accommodation.
