We really liked the location, the room size was fantastic. Large fridge which was unexpected. Microwave, kettle, toaster all the amenities. Just a bit dated and in need of TLC, but that wouldn’t stop us from staying again.

I was a single female travelling for work and had to listen to a man screaming obscenities at my back bathroom window. It was very unsettling and quote frightening. Room was OK, no shower gel in the pump so had to use shampoo. Bed was comfortable

The room was nothing like the modern pictures shown on the website. The amenities are old and laminated cabinets are chipped. Toilet, vanity sink, and the whole room requires updating. Air conditioning and tap water are hard to control. Best thing about the place is location and drive in layout.
