"After cruise stay"

10.0

We stayed for a night before heading off to a safari. Really great for those getting off a cruise ship as close to the V&A and cruise terminal that passengers are familiar with. Friendly helpful staff and rooms with international plugs, usb outlets and consumables eg shampoo, tea, coffee etc
