The room was well equiped, everything I wanted was there, and I was able to spend my time there more comfortably than in my own home. Their service was excellent and I received more than I paid. The manager Colin gave me all the tourist information I was looking for, and for me—since I had come for birdwatching—he even posted a question in a Facebook group he belongs to to help find the answer. I can't express how grateful I am for all the help I received. Thank you so much!
