Mostly a good place for a short convenient stay.
Pros:

Ground floor level was convenient.
Parking was at the door.
It fit our grandchildren in well.
The cleaner was friendly and did not hurry us at checkout.
We could walk to the cbd.
There were plates, bowls and cutlery.
The air conditioning was good and warm.
There were plenty of milks, tea bags, and biscuits.
The area was quiet enough.

Cons:

The shower dripped.
There was no bible in the cupboard.
There was no door to close between rooms. The lower walls could be patched and sealed/painted near the fridge.
The light switch for the 2nd room was in an obscure position.
But overall we appreciated the place.

Pros:

The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Very quiet and great that the car can be parked in front of the room for easy access.

Cons:

They could fix the unhinged cupboard door underneath the sink. Have a visible sign put up to let new guests know that you have to go into the tavern part of the hotel for checking in.
