Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
I haven’t received check in details and had to call numerous callers to get the night staff to supply check in card. Room was good but the fridge was very noisy. The room needs to have some utensils like spoon to stir your hot drinks. There was no front desk staff the morning to find some information and to get a breakfast card
Other the bad comments, it is good place for stay over for couple of nights.
Staff were lovely at least the main man on reception. He was very helpful and everything was very clean. Shower was a bit small. Great for one night stay, no time for a longer visit.

Room was immaculate and clearly money has been spent on the rooms which is great! Don’t be put off by the tired exterior.
Affordable price and good for short stays if you just need a place to sleep. The pool was under construction during our visit, but it wasn’t a problem since we only stayed overnight.
