10/10 Exceptional

From the moment we arrived to final departure, the service and friendliness from the staff was amazing. We felt very welcomed and nothing was a problem. We had the Executive Suite overlooking the Showgrounds. It was very spacious, very clean and so comfortable. The location was ideal for us as we wanted to attend the Caravan Show over several days. Each night we dined in the restaurant as it was so good. Their steaks are the best! We certainly wouldn't hesitate staying again. It was so handy, so comfortable and overall a great pleasure.
