Great hotel and great for bikers
Pros:

Nice rooms with comfortable bed. Clean bathroom. The staff were great. The guy that checked us in couldn’t do enough to help accommodate our motorbikes and help us park them at back of hotel safely. Would highly recommend for bikers. We had an Indian meal in the restaurant which was amazing. Had a nice breakfast included the next day. Loved this hotel and would deffo stay there again.

Cons:

Nothing.
