The property office was open until 9pm which was nice. It was a decent room and availability to walk to restaurants and shops if you like. For a quick stay I wouldn’t have a problem staying again if needed.

Rooms are extremely basic, not even a single piece of decor. Only stayed 1 night so didn’t really use any of the facilities. Told we could check out at 11am. Got a knock on our room at 10.40am telling us we should have checked out at 10am. Clearly zero communication. We then got locked out of our room before 11am & had to wait around for 10 minutes ringing the front desk bell cause no one was around.
