5 Star Review by Pip C
The river view room has a window that looks out to the Tweed River and Mt Warning. The room was simple, clean and fresh. The owner is very helpful and friendly. I had room service for breakfast. The scrambled eggs were still hot. The service was helpful and friendly. Thank you Kevin. See you next time.
