The hotel was a little hard to find as there were no local signs. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Room was very clean and tastefully decorated. Would recommend this hotel.

Spacious room with a nice big bathroom and lovely shower, two good sized and comfortable double beds. The room was very clean and tidy and was also well maintained and in good order. It was nice to be able to park the car outside of the hotel in a well lit area and the front of house and bar staff were all very friendly and helpful. Smooth check in process. Generally very comfortable hotel and would definitely recommend it.

The only down side was that the windows on the room (202) could not be opened and even with the air conditioning on, the room was still very warm and became quite hot and stuffy, as there was no natural air in the room. With the air conditioning on to try and cool the room down all night, my sister and I both woke up with headaches and dry coughs. So windows that you could at least open would have been better and nicer.Also, I did notice that after staying at the hotel over night and by sleeping in the bed next to the bathroom, that a couple of hours after getting up in the morning, my shoulder and part of my back (the side that I sleep on) was covered in small itchy bite marks and although the room itself was very clean and tidy, I think that I shared my bed with some not so friendly little bugs ( which apparently is not unusual these days with all the international travelling and suit cases travelling here there and everywhere with stow away bugs on board) !! Apart from this the overall experience and stay was very good and I am generally very fussy as previously I was the Head House Keeper of a five star hotel, so it can't have been that bad. The bed just needs to be checked out.
