"Location. Meals available on site. Clean. Hot showers."

9.0

Location. Roomy. Reception staff wonderful!!!Upstairs and downstairs rooms. Hot showers, close to other retail, evening buffet meals available breakfast and dinner.

Sadly our stay coincided with bus tours, people noisy talking outside rooms later in the night, the noise of luggage moving on the upper stairs echoed to the ground floor rooms.
