Max, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A little bit of excellence in every way.

It was roomy, quiet, warm and very comfortable. It had full kitchen facilities and I think we may have been upgraded. It is close to Merivale and within walking distance from eateries and shops. The staff were very friendly and couldn't be more helpful. It is one of our favourite places.
