charmed by clean comfort

modern room spacious room easy access live music
i found the room modern and spacious. i walked across the road easily to get something to eat. this location provided a quick start toward mereenie road next morning. the sunset bar had live music and killer sunsets.
The pillows were too soft for my taste. I usually prefer something firmer, but that is only a slight preference.
