My room was spotless, the bed was very comfortable, breakfast was a just short walk away. Check in was interesting…I received a text early afternoon with a code which I punched into the door handle.

Clean, quiet, convenient. Discount on drinks and meals at the local club was appreciated. Key pad entry meant we didn’t see or meet staff members. Will stay again.

The room was fairly spacious for just an overnight stopover. The proprietor was very friendly and gave very good advice regarding places to relax & eat, which were all within easy walking distance. The only very slight downside was the water saving showerhead which was a tad too miserly.
