8.2/10 Very good! (480 reviews)
Location, customer service and room was great. Room was clean however no air conditioner, had to use a fan and room felt a bit old and needs an upgrade. But bed was comfy. Would definitely book there again, just not in summer (only because there's no air con).

Hotel needs a deep clean - out room had a mouldy spare toilet roll that doesn’t make me feel like they put too much attention into maintaining standards. Well located for a camper van pick up.
