Friendly staff. The fridge worked to freeze the Esky bottle. Comfortable stay. A restaurant on sight and enjoyed the meal. Something I didn't spot until late in my stay, but instead had been using an extension cord from the wall opposite for my laptop on the desk. There is a closer power point in the place where the electric jug is stored. A power board on the bench/desk would be good, and a higher chair for working on it.
