      Never again

      Great parking and good position. That's all that's going for it. Had an issue with the booking and manager wouldn't even show his/her face! Poor amenities, no assistance, don't bother , there must be better for the price.

      Beautiful old style hotel with a modern twist, Very reasonable prices and friendly helpful staff. Spacious room with good size working bathroom. Perfect for couples staying for a night. Buffett Breakfast at a very reasonable rate and plenty to choose from.
