The rooms were modern and clean. Lighting was a bit dim in the room, but we got used to it. The location was good for all the day trips.

Hi Geoff,The room type you had booked is our studio single. These are our more budget friendly rooms for solo travellers. However we do have studio queens that are significantly larger in future if you stay with us again. We appreciate you taking the time to review us.
