Property is well situated, not in the city centre, but close enough that it was a quick drive into the main attractions. Plenty of parking for cars and right in front of the accommodation. Restaurant had nice food and drinks. Our room was very hot, but was resolved quickly when we realised the air-conditioning was not working. Rooms were neat and tidy, however I noticed the walls were all quite dirty. Not just scuffs, but finger prints, and crumbs of food. I think it will benefit the overall look with a scrub down. There was a microwave in a kitchen, but we were denied being able to use this. Disappointing, its there, theres no harm in being able to access this. If you need to heat baby bottles, they might make an exception? We were directed to go to the petrol station accross the rd. Check in was easy, but firm on time. We arrived at approx. 245-250pm-ish but advised check-in is at 3pm. I later saw that you can pay for an early check-in, which explains the firm set time. No lifts in the accommodation building, so you will need to carry your bags upstairs. Ensure you communicate if you have accessibility issues when booking. Staff were all lovely, especially the young guy running the morning breakfast rush.
