Good Stay Close to the Ness River

easy access great range good showers
The location allowed very easy access to everything I wanted. The breakfast offered a great range of foods. The rooms felt comfortable with good showers. A later check-out was available and appreciated.
I noticed some marks on the walls. The curtain was dirty and clearly had not been cleaned. I felt the interior could use an update, especially considering the price I paid.
