"Adequate facilities for the purposes of the stay of three nights. Cost friendly and comfortable cabins. The hot pool was definitely a highlight inclusive of price. The showers were a little tricky to use and having an information booklet to assist in knowing how to use them would be helpful. Hot showers require $2 coins."

"The room was large with a large spacious bathroom. The room was on the ground floor and overlooking the street which made you feel looked in to. Some sort of blind or lace curtain would give a bit more privacy. The option for underground parking was great. It had everything we needed and was very warm. There was building work going on on the building next door however we did not hear anything and it did not disturb us at all."
