I had some work to do so the desk was great. The unit was lovely and wam.. It was larger than expected as I was upgraded. I liked having a heater in the bathroom and the water pressure was great. Friendly helpful owner/manager. Happy to book there again.

The beds were extremely comfortable. Minimal noise from a busy road. Heat pump was a bit noisy in our unit, the hair dryer was broken and the shower had very poor water pressure but the unit itself was perfect in size and very comfortable.
