The property is in the best location...dated, but functional. Staff were extremely helpful in any issues that I wanted resolved. The downside...and VERY IMPORTANT was that between 10.00 am and 6.00 pm the road is closed to all traffic leading to the hotel. I had a semi disabled wife with me, and we had to walk uphill for about 100 to 150 metres with our luggage to reach the hotel. It was the same walk after staying in the hotel. The staff did come to help with the luggage, buit be warned if u have more than one suitcase or a big family with children.
