Clean facility, great location, somewhat reasonable rates. Only issue was with check-in, where it was difficult to understand all of the information given in two minutes. Also could have used a bit more supplies in the unit, instead of having to keep going to the front desk. Nice to have the gated entrance.

Clean inside. Stairs hard work with a lot of luggage. In town but not walkable to centre. Nice stay. Bed firm. Pillows a bit big for us.

The property was exceptionally spacious, and at no point did it feel cramped or confined. In its heyday, it would undoubtedly have been an exclusive and impressive place to stay. While the property retains plenty of character, some of the fixtures and fittings are now showing their age. A few of the carpets would benefit from being replaced, and our room had a noticeable damp smell on arrival. Fortunately, once we opened the windows and aired the room, the issue was resolved. The hosts were warm, welcoming, and very accommodating throughout our stay, which made for an enjoyable overall experience.

Clean and comfortable accommodation. Would be good if they charge a few dollars more than look to make money by charging for Toilet rolls, body wash soap etc (they only provided 1 very small tablet of body wash soap)
