"Good parking, clean ideally located for my needs. Downsides would be they do not do omelettes, baked beans are watered down, check out time of 10.30 is very early, room key had been deactivated before 9 am on check out day. The shower head in the bathroom was too heavy for the shower head holder and fell off a couple of times but luckily I moved in time. I am also not a fan of hotels with dogs. It is a clean, and a nice building, with good parking. I would recommend it."
