    Really great place. Very quiet and staff were really friendly. Really good option if you’re just flying in or flying out the next day. They were very helpful in organising a fair priced airport transfer.

    Big rooms and good facilities. The highlight are the family that own it. Probably some of the nicest people I have ever met. Makes me want to come back and see them again like they are family.
