Good value for money has a full kitchen shower and lounge living room two chairs which is comfortable a dining table in the kitchen and a full stove. Bed was firm, but it was comfortable. Unfortunately they turned the fridges off which was very annoying because it was 30° outside and it took forever for a fridge to cool down. although it’s on main road it’s not overly clear noisy. Friendly staff probably would come and stay again.
