9.0

Located very near to restaurants and town. Lovely comfortable room, great shower and lovely towels. Rob helped with restaurant recommendations and very handy parking pass, lots of info to hand as well. No breakfast but not even 1 minute walk to superb Cafe Altitude (upstairs at climbing wall)

Nothing all good. Although shower shelf, handtowel rail/ring next to sink, handrail in shower or option of slip mat would greatly enhance stay imo.
