"This place looks a little dated but it is so clean I was very impressed. If the furniture was updated it would have been a 5 Star easily. Truly not covering any flaws to hide its age. Parking was included. On the days I stayed plenty was available. Very convenient area with plenty of shops in all directions. Staff was very friendly. Simple basic breakfast. Coffee tea toast etc. Definitely a go to place I will be using."
