This is an older property but clean & tidy and a great location. Easy walk to shopping/restaurants & also to connect onto riverside walking track. Standard kitchen facilities but had high quality tea, coffee, hot chocolate which was a nice touch. Good off street parking & outdoor chairs/table. Self service laundry available for guests. Basic bathroom amenities so best to bring your own. Would definitely stay again.

Well priced and the greeting was super friendly. The room was clean and comfortable, with a huge balcony. A sensor light in the parking area for room 3 would be nice. It was a bit dark until I got to the light switch for the stairs.
