Central location at a reasonable price. Rooms were a little old fashioned but comfortable. Big pool was nice however chlorine a little strong at times. Good car parking and an easy walk to main shops and restaurants. Limited room servicing was ok but small charges for extra towels etc seemed petty. Overall good value for money. Hosts were helpful and friendly
