Affordable but only had 1 thin blanket for each bed in winter - we asked for one more each & they didn't have enough. Only 1 sink - had to fill the kettle & rinse cups where we brush teeth & wash hands - or wash hands in the shower. Traffic noise.

The young lady at the counter was lovely and helpful. The room was clean, the bed comfortable. There was no remote for the tv which I addressed with the young lady that was fine though when I got in late that night I realised there was also no remote to control the heat so sleep was a little difficult. Otherwise everything was good.
