The room was good for our purposes- a stop over on a long road trip. The shower was hot and the aircon cool, and nice big TV. Tea and coffee a biscuit if you want. Handy to places for meals, and breakfast is provided which was really a bonus. We would stay again.

This was an overnight stay.
Arrived late night, ordered a really good Thai meal made on the premises then slept like a baby on the super comfy bed.
Breakfast was included , very basic but just what was needed for an early start.

Friendly staff, clean large room and very good continental breakfast.
Dinner from the on site Thai restaurant was delicious and resonable price, delivered to our room.
Happily stay there again.
Only issue was that parking was a little cramped.
