the cabin was superbly fitted out with all kitchen equipment vegetable strainer tea towels graters all the

the little kitchen.

bed was comfy and the place was clean enough - parking available next to cabin - easy to contact staff - you

not work and caretakers aware of this - no antennae; i was yelled at by the caretakers for not parking in the

being in the corner cabin, parking was a little tight - manageable, but tight.

have liked a small bar fridge & tea/coffee facilities in the room or a separate area to keep such things

rates, parking available though not enclosed, and fairly close to town center but areas of interest are a

good location; near the light rail, street parking nearby, cafe across the road
