Clean room but the armchairs and carpets are old and need regular cleaning. Comfortable bed, welcoming staff. No lift so I found it hard to carry the luggage upstairs. Restaurant was nice, full on a Tuesday night! Good variety in drinks, meals good too but arrived late as they were short staffed. Overall a good stay for that price, I would recommend. ##### Adriana Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yasuhiro Dec 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Good facilities and amenities. ##### Yasuhiro Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christina Jan 7, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was simple but clean, staff were very attentive, location is nice and central.

Great shower, and the pool was lovely as well. Great laundry facilities, and as previously mentioned was only a 15min walk to town. 10/10 would stay here again! ##### Giselle Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol Oct 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Last minute reservation, communication great, room very comfortable. ##### Carol Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Joanne Jan 1, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Didn't use restaurant for dinner as was closing at approx 8.30pm, however bar staff permitted us a drink to take to our room - that was appreciated. ##### Joanne Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Claire Dec 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fresh looking room which was nice and clean. ##### Claire Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Olivia Oct 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely accomodating staff and pristine room.

We ate dinner at the restaurant on site and it was very good. The little pizza place a block or so away was fantastic. The laundry room was perfect and soap was included. The beds were comfortable and even with open windows it was quiet. The early morning birdsong was lovely. This hotel is nicer than the pictures and description! ##### Noreen Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Gretchen Jan 2, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Beds were very comfy, and plenty of parking. I wouldn’t call the pool heated but it was nice to relax in after a hot day out. Set up is a little odd where you have to enter the building to unlock the doors before being able to open the ranch slider, that opens up out to the car park. Reception was very accommodating by giving us a ground floor room as I had hurt my leg just before our holiday. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8fe6e46c-c765-4c2b-9ced-788a2943a864-1767320000442.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gretchen Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Nov 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was clean.
