    26 March 2018

    "Loved the helpfulness and friendliness as well as very close proximity to shops and eating places . The cane chairs in the room could do with a higher back :) ! A small self contained two plate oven stove combination in the kitchen would be a great addition but not critical as I think few people would cook in the unit and probably prefer using the microwave in the room"

    18 July 2016
