I stayed for 4 nights while in the region for sports and it was perfect. Ruby was so accommodating and even offered to look after me for the afternoon as I had a late flight home. The room was so comfortable and and clean and I slept well every night with barely any road noise even though you are right next to the main road. Thank you Ruby and team for taking such good care of me and please dont stop "babying" your guests its one of the reasons Ill be back if im ever in Palmy again.
