On entering room , it smelt pretty bad which is unfortunate because there really is nowhere to go or hide from a bad smell. I think it may have been the drains but everything else seemed to be ok. Definitely would look elsewhere first

Affordable stay

Pretty much what I expected from a budget motel. Room was a bit tired and run down, but it was clean and quiet. Service from the reception staff could have been better. Attached hotel does a decent meal, and the location is conviently located a short walk from resturants, supermarkets, and the train line.
