Lian

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I liked that it was clean and tidy, quiet even though its close to the bluebridge terminal we slept with the windows open and were not woken by any traffic noise. Its also within walking distance of the local shops. Bed was very comfortable. I thought it could have had a little more storage. We had to keep our bags on the floor, along with the extra blankets that we took off the bed. Nowhere to put toiletries. Spa pool closed too early for us to make use of.
