What customers say
Praised for cleanliness, tidiness, and a peaceful vibe. Easy check-in, even late, and quick query responses. Clean, warm showers/toilets noted, though some find them dated. Dog-friendly with nice walks. Some communication hiccups (codes, numbers) and occasional lack of staff. Price (pets!) and service availability (food, Wi-Fi) mentioned.
