Location Breakfast

The room was dated and the furniture grubby. The evening meal was very average, not the best quality and expensive for what we had.

"Has potential, but didn’t work for lone female traveller"

4.0

The location, the facilities, the restaurant, food was excellent. Parking.

Did not feel safe as a lone female traveller, as could not security lock the bedroom door from the inside. Needs a chain or bolt? Room was not very clean when moved furniture . Didn’t realise rooms were outside in motel style. Restaurant service was laid back.
