Staff and owner are absolutely amazing, they went above and beyond for me with my week stay! They are so kind and caring, and will literally do everything to make you feel so comfortable, they we out of there way to make me lunches everyday for my stay, and spoiling myself and my 9month old with yummy snacks and constant greetings and waves making us feel more at home then at our own home! I couldnt recommend staying here more! Bringing me breakfast, lunch and dinner right to my door with the biggest of smiles and chats. The staff alone are the reason why I will be back! Cleaners, the receptionist

Fantastic people who run the place, couldn't do enough for us - we were even bumped up to the prestige family room. Very comfortable lodgings had for the night, hot breakfast was excellent. Can't recommend this place highly enough - Mario will definitely look after you. The Dining room meals are very reasonably priced for both breakfast and dinner, I'll definitely be calling in for a feed when we are down on our next trip.
Cheers guys this place surprised me no end BZ

Even though on the highway the rooms were quiet. The bed was comfy, room nice, shower hot and service friendly. They accommodated our request which is always appreciated.
