"Obviously undergoing renovation the complex was a bit untidy and inconsistent. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The room was definitely in need of upgrade but it was clean, comfortable and fine for our overnight needs. Really could have done with a microwave and two pillows for each person. Otherwise no complaints."
