Friendly staff and cosy atmosphere. Clean and simple. Great location. Quiet.

Justin Australia

I was upgraded to a ground floor, very large room. We were then able to extend our stay for two more nights. This saved walking up steps during our 5 days in Preston. Instant hot water meant the shower was easy to control. Large, absorbent towels. Nice to have a microwave.

Ppse Australia

Really nice king size spa room. The room was nicely set up and loved the spa area. The room was very comfy and the building nice and quiet. Staff are lovely and friendly.
