Anaco Bay Inn

Anaco Bay Inn

8/10 Good
"The hotel had plenty of parking and the room was a great size. As a twin downstairs it also has a small kitchenette with fridge, sink and hob along with a dining table which was very useful. The breakfast was a little sparse but it was completely which was a nice touch. There is a pizza restaurant next door which was useful. All in all a great place on the edge of the town"
