    I had a comfortable stay with friendly staff who genuinely assisted in making my experience pleasant. the room showed signs of wear, and there were occasional inconsistencies with the shower water pressure. The location is great for families, being close to local attractions and public transport.

    hot waffles
    exciting variety
    convenient location
    cramped pool
    snug room

    You can’t beat those hot waffles at breakfast! The variety is lush, and the food really hits the spot after visits to the zoo, just moments away. Plus, the location makes it dead easy to get into town.

    The swimming pool was a bit cramped with kids making waves, and we had a snug room that felt tight on space.

    I had such an AMAZING time because of the convenience of being just steps away from the zoo! 💖 The room was decent, but a bit tired. Worth it for the location, though!
