It was a large room and it was clean and tidy. The facilities seem a bit dated, but overall a fine place to spend a night or two.

If you had of let us service your room while you were here for 7 nights, you would have got the bathroom cleaned daily and fresh supplies of plastic bags and toilet paper, etc. Not 1 service did you ask for. we do not enter a guests room unless the service sign is out on the door by 10am as stated in our welcome letter.
