Close to arterial route, but walkable to supermarket, restaurants and into town. Comfy bed and despite the bitterly cold weather, unit easy to keep warm. Heater was on so nice to arrive to a warm unit.

Property is in a great location, friendly staff and very clean, only issue we had was the shower has great pressure, but the shower head is fixed and at a low height, so we found it a bit difficult to use.
