This was ideal as a stopover.
Everything was clean and ready for us - thank you to our hosts.
As a studio unit, there is not a full kitchen (to wash dishes) but toaster, jug and fridge were ideal.
Mattress firm and very comfortable.
Outside private spa bath was lovely, it rained overnight andbit was awesome sitting in the tub under small shelter roof and watching rain fall.
