The room was great for 4 with 2 beds. However the room did smell like dogs. I think it was on the chairs. It wasn’t overly strong but we could definitely smell in on arrival. No milk in the fridge for coffee and only 4 coffee packets for 3 days. We did ask for more. We spent $50 on parking which would have been nice if parking was included. Location and staff were awesome.

I didn't like that there were Indian tourists being unhygenic at the buffet and that this was not policed. They were also sitting crossed legged and barefoot in reception with their feet on furniture. Again no one was discouraging this disgusting behaviour.
