“A delightful stay”
This was a pleasant and peaceful solo stay. I loved the hand and body wash and lotion. The bed was very comfortable, and I appreciated the private atmosphere. The effort put into the finishes and decorations did not go unnoticed.

“Good value for money and friendly owner and staff.”
I liked the fact that I could lock my car in a garage. Everything advertised was there. The entrance to unit was private and I had my own private outside area to use. Had my own remote to access property. Lastly I felt safe with the property having very good security measures.
