friendly staff helpful staff lovely restaurant newer wing travel lodge basic room
I found the staff VERY friendly and helpful. They offered great local advice. The restaurant was lovely, and the food was good. I especially liked the comfortable room with its good facilities (I wish it had a safe though).
My room was in a newer wing across the courtyard. The room was more basic and similar to a travel lodge. This was a bit of a schlep (annoying distance) to get to. I found this unexpectedly disappointing.

Decent stay with minor issues

friendly staff clean room good breakfast noisy area inaccurate photo no hot water
The breakfast offered a good start to the day. The room was generally clean upon arrival. Staff members were friendly and helpful .
My room was located above the bar area and it was quite noisy until late. The photos online did not accurately represent my room. The shower lacked hot water during one morning.
