Pros:

When there was an issue with the clothing iron that was in our room, the staff was able to get us the new iron on time, the staff at reception were friendly, parking was available, and we did not have to worry about it, near the city.

Great clean facility, an easy stay thank you for accommodating our trailer.
Pros:

Even though it was on a main road and our room was right next too the road it was actually quiet. Really enjoyed the restaurant and bar after arriving tired and hungry. Staff were very accommodating of our moving trailer.

Cons:

Another guest took our car park so we went to sleep not knowing if the car would move allowing us to leave early. The staff followed this up and rang at 10pm and woke us up to let us know and to move our car into our designated car park. Not enough bowls in three person room.
