The Angus Hotel
Tidy room, super handy to things like supermarket, mall etc. The team were lovely. Shower was a little luke warm, but that was sorted. The restaurant was good! Great burger 🍔

Settlers Motor Lodge
Parking was secure and right beside the unit we were in. Other units the parking was directly in front of the ranch slider. With parking so close to the unit door it did not matter what the weather was doing when putting gear in the car.

Gilmer Apartment Hotel
Location is great. Access to the Wellness Center was a huge plus. Windows/walls are VERY THIN so you are at the mercy of traffic or construction going on outside
