Clean basic room super friendly staff. Would stay again :)
Booking in was easy, and ample parking for most-sized vehicles.
Rooms and Bedding were great, and an easy 20-minute walk to the centre of town.
Light snacks and meals were also available from reception.
Clean and comfortable with Netflix included in the room very retro style fridge. Have stayed here a few times and have always enjoyed it.
