intercity bus司機送到住宿門口,工作人員親切介紹周邊環境,還送給孩子們牛奶喝。這裡CP值高,床好睡,暖氣夠溫暖。廚房有爐子可煮食,甚至有電鍋可煮飯,我的孩子們很開心。有洗衣機、烘衣機可使用,要投幣,可到超市去換幣。離超市、餐廳都很近。我住了3個晚上,下次再來一定會來住。

Everything! Fab throughout. Such lovely accommodation and staff. Receptionist went above and beyond her duty, even lending us her personal mobile phone charger when there was a long power cut in the whole area
