10/10 Excellent

I was delighted to get a room upgrade when I checked-in, and was given a complementary bottle of milk to start the day. Kiara our host was very friendly and gave us food and tourist site recommendations. Room was on the 2nd floor and was spacious. It had a spa bath in the bathroom and from the window of the room I was able to see the cathedral (good view there). As the lodge is located along the main street, there is a petrol kiosk and a macdonalds within 5mins walking distance. Good food...
