Nice and spacious with 2 separate rooms with queen bed in living area and 3 singles in another room. Celia on reception was friendly and obliging.

Not much pressure in shower, toilet paper could be installed in a more accessible location but all good other wise.

Pros:

Awesome staff, nice stay and with the bonus addition of a tavern next door. How good.

Cons:

Tavern curry meal, absolutely trash. The snitzel was disgusting too.
Sorry to say!
But the curry was insulting.
Make it fresh or not at all.
Microwaved trash. Yuck.
