"Ok people, these cabins are SO spacious. You'll get a good sized fridge, a real coffee maker, a tea kettle, a microwave, plenty of cookware and dishes, and a two hob stove (not induction) that is very easy to operate. Zero complaints from us."

North West Restaurant & Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent
"My partner and I were passing thru and stayed here for one evening. It’s not a fancy place, it almost has a kind of truck stop feel vibe to it. The staff were friendly and welcoming, I don’t know the name of the lady who checked us in but she was just fantastic and fun. Check in was easy, if you’ll be late to your check in let them know in advance - I’m sure they can accommodate you. Our room was quaint, tiny but it was comfortable and perfect for an evening. Private bathroom is always a plus. Hot water really smells like sulfur because of the area, a little stanky but not a big deal! What I really loved about this property was the restaurant below. We went for dinner after our check in and our server was the same lady who checked us in! It was a little pricey of course but it was so delicious. I’m still thinking about that meal, very tasty, great service. The restaurant closes early so keep that in mind. They do offer breakfast as well but it’s not included. I think I noticed a gas station beside the property, so that’s convenient too (no food though, only gas). This was a great stay if you’re passing thru and I recommend it to you if you’re considering. It’s great for solo travellers and partners. Thank you North West for the great stay!"
