These rooms are equipped with en-suite bathrooms, with one room with a bath and the other 7 with a shower. Other amenities include tea- and coffee-making facilities and snack baskets. 5 of the rooms have air-conditioning and 3 with fans. TV with selected channels. Rooms are booked on a room-only basis, but breakfast can be arranged ahead of time at extra cost. Free Wi-fi is available on the property.
