A great property to stay at, conveniently located a few hundred metres from the main street and close to the attractions. The room was very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities that you could need. The staff were friendly and obliging. Will stay there again if in the area

A good rest stop. Facility is a bit dated but amenities were in good working conditions. Just that the wifi signal is very weak most of the time. Nice mountain view.
