We found the unit to be clean easily accessible with having a car park literally at the door. After a long drive we found having room service available for a meal was excellent - the meal itself & customer service. Jimmy D's restaurant is also open to dine in - breakfast also available for room service if ordered the night before. We will definitely stay again.

May sound minor but the fact that when we booked in late at night, the key was in the safe box at the office and the room had milk and biscuits was great. Nice room as well.

It was amazing. The bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept on. The place was clean and gave off a real chill vibe. Also love the little smoking area in the centre, great idea
