great review - sounds a great hotel x hev by pixie65

This hotel sounds good. I liked the light up alarm clock especially it's such a nuisance having to switch a light on to see the time when you're half asleep! Are there still Tasmanian Devils there or are they extinct now? xx by manlybeach

Since I don't much care for Cadbury's chocolates, I think I'll pass... by TheChocolateLady
