Practical and Pleasant Stay

great location ample parking spacious rooms
The location is great. It is a short walk into the town center. Ample parking space is outside the hotel. The rooms are spacious. Our room included en-suite facilities with shampoo and body wash.
The website said coffee-making facilities were in the room. We had to go downstairs for hot water for instant coffee and tea. I think this needs to be updated .
