Right across road from hospital. Nice quiet unit. Easy to drive to city.
I booked then due to circumstances needed to change date to 2 days later and Carramar wouldn’t change instead charged me for the night. Hotel.com tried everything to get Carramar to change the booking and they wouldn’t.
A lovely place to stay. Highly recommend to all.
Friendly and accommodating staff. Clean, spacious room. Beautiful bathroom, amazing shower. Looking forward to staying there again in July
