It was so warm when we were there and there weren’t any cooling system apart from a cheap old fan, we couldn’t sleep at all because it was so hot in the rooms and also lots of bugs came in from outside because we had to open the windows to cool down, they should have warn customers that rooms can be warmer than usual in the summer period. Other than that everything was fine

The location was ideal for our travel plans and was a rural, quiet spot. The room was so inviting with dual aspect views and good lighting. There was plenty of parking and the staff were extremely polite and welcoming.
