Firstly this is the cleanest lodge I have ever been too, there wasn't a speck of dust anywhere to be seen! The beds were so comfortable, each had a foam mattress topper and the best night's sleep I had for the 4 nights, as did the other guests! It was local to the town, although walking was around 20 minutes, this was central to many places we visited and a good base We would definetly recommend this place again!
