The hotel seems new and extra amenities are lacking. Good base to explore the region but you need own transport to get around (ie not walking distance to town). Breakfast is basic. We eat our meals in town, so no comment on restaurant food. It has a large secure parking area. Good overnight/short stay base ##### Sean ---
