Acceptable Stay Overall

pre service appropriate room attentive staff unprepared restaurant unavailable dish inedible sandwich
Before my arrival, the hotel contacted me to check on my needs. This was a good touch. On arrival, the staff ensured I had a room suitable for my needs. The restaurant found me a table at the top to avoid steps.
My daughter's Cullen Skink order was unavailable. The prawn sandwich contained small shrimps in a watery salad cream. It was inedible.

wonderful stay

renovated room friendly staff
the room was newly renovated and had excellent coffee and tea options. the staff at reception were friendly and helpful. i especially appreciated the amazing fish and chips at the restaurant.
parking was difficult because the lot was almost always full . this made it inconvenient to come and go as i pleased. i hope they can find a solution to expand the parking.
