10/10 Excellent
"My first time staying here, Parking is free and it is a 1 min walk to the village and 4 min walk to the Pizza Village. The balcony view is worth it if you like a cold breeze depending on the weather and they have mini small snack bar on the lobby floor that has red bull energy drinks. The fireplace was amazing and I think I'll come back again because its a good deal to be close to the town"
