    My only actual gripe his that sometimes you need to wait around for a fair bit of time in a morning before you actually see any housekeeping to ask for condiments and coffee ☕️ and milk 🥛 and also clean towels and toilet rolls has they only seem to turn up later in a morning but other than that everything was seriously very satisfactory and anything that you asked for you got no problem.......

    It was quiet enough and very pleasant and ran by really nice people and I would certainly go back to stay again no problem whatsoever.........

    Contrary to the advertisement there was no breakfast served or a licensed bar. I assume the owner simply needs to update their information. Also there was no iron or saucers for cups, added to the fact there were no bedside tables it made enjoying a cup of coffee a little difficult.

    The beds were very comfortable and the location was fairly central and close to the excellent central carpark. Also the shower was very hot and satisfying.

    We had 2 rooms a double and family room, both rooms were extremely small there was no room to move about, the bathroom was also very small and not big enough to be able to get dressed which left me with no privacy, the room.was clean but considering we were booked for 4 nights I thought there might have been some housekeeping at least once during our stay but there was not. The street was also very noisy though the night. The mattress on the double dunk did not fit the bedframe and I banged my head really hard of the dunk bed through the night which almost split my head open, I know this is not the property's fault but because of the layout and postion of the dunks this could have been avoided.

    We had a welcome checkin on arrival, the outside was clean and inviting the inside was also clean and welcoming. The rooms were clean and smelled fresh, the bedding and towels were clean. The location was perfect and close to all attractions.

    - only thing for me was when turning on hot tap in bathroom, water came on top of shower drain. not ideal, but for one night, it didnt matter much

    - great location to where we wanted to be - clean room, bedding and loved the fact coffee and tea was in the room - pre-paid for parking, bonus, as not far from hotel - room had enough beds for a family of 5 to sleep very comfortably (2 adults, 3 kids) - despite the size of the room, ensuite was still there (added bonus for us) - had some issues with another family regarding noise levels, but Owners were on point with handling this! - very professional and courteous!

    No cooling fan or air conditioning as it was summer season as we all were boxed in with no air so that was tough going especially when the little ones are complaining
