The bar next door is extremely loud on a Saturday night. But we didn’t mind too much since it was only the 1 night it was open during our stay.

Pros:

Location was handy, it was clean, well appointed, with friendly staff.

Cons:

The noise does travel in the building. We had an internal door for shared room access (that we weren't using) and we could hear everything in the other room.

Would stay again, would like curtains though
Pros:

Friendly staff, handy parking, close to eateries

Cons:

No curtains on sliding glass door, light came through as daylight began, tv also reflection on sliding door making it a nuisance to watch in the evening.
Freezer needed defrost as froze anything we put in the fridge. Booked for 3 days but hardly any coffee sachet and reception close so unable to get more till next day, body wash fixed to high especially when in bath had to stand up to get it, lack bench space in bathroom could do with a stand or more shaving to put things on as plenty room to do so, no table to eat at for two people, could have one in court yard piece , courtyard chairs ground in dust need a good wash/clean,

Tidy and big room with great location.
Pros:

This hotel room was huge for 2 people it was basically an apartment. The room was clean and tidy with a nice shower and comfortable bedding. Great location close to the main area.

Cons:

The steps into the shower were a bit of a tripping hazard and well as the stairs up to the room.
