The room was very small and not as pictured. It had a lot of stains on the walls and the window had a long crack across the entire glass pane. I stayed one night for work so wasn’t there for long.

The common area was clean as was the linen. Staff was non existent did not realise was a self service accomodation. Parking was there but I did not need it. The room carpet could do with shampoo and the cupboard with dusting . The bathroom fixture though looked new could do with upgrade.. .
