"Hotel was a short walk to the park but would highly recommend the new shuttle service at $7 a day. Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially the restaurant staff, would recommend the Philly Sandwich and sweet potato fries !! Rooms were very clean, but hotel does need some modernising, however you get what you pay for and in my opinion this hotel was worth what we paid."
