The best word I can find for this property is 'shabby'. Very tired looking and not overly comfortable. But I did expect a hot shower, and I only got that one day out of three.

While this is close to town it felt v safe and was quiet in the ‘back rooms’. It was roomy, had v good wifi, coffee, service from very pleasant staff. Clearly this place has gone to big effort to upgrade itself and its appearance. All kitchen appliances as needed were there and in good condition. We are staying there again in 2 weeks.
