The room was average and not well sound proofed. Smokers and people talking when walking to their room was disruptive. It is nice and handy to town

Almost 5 star
Great stay, although, knowing we had a baby with us I probably it would have been good not to have a dual queen bed set up as we barely had space for the portacot. Also fridge needs to be looked at as it was like a warm cupboard and wouldn’t go cold. Which was not ideal in the lead up to the ultra marathon. Other than that, friendly staff and great amenities
