Pros +

  • The staffs n the boss were really friendly n helpful. And the location was great as there were several attractions nearby. The facilities were a plus, with the multi stoves and heater bathroom too. Will come during our next visit.

Cons -

  • Parking was alittle tough as the space allocated was tight. Manuving down the driveway was a good test to see how skillful the driver is.
