Whole hotel needs an upgrade. Smells like an old hostel. Carpets lifting everywhere. Beds and bathroom was clean. Windows where very filthy and some wont open. No extractor fan in bathroom. I asked for trim milk and was told they will phone and organise. I never heard back or got anything. Not worrh the price. Very disappointed unfortunately

Simple, basic and budget, but was completely fine for our overnight stay and a great price. Decent sized rooms. Bed was comfortable. Towels and sheets were all clean. Could hear trucks driving past at night but wasn’t too bad. Good hot breakfast. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Printed some forms for our car hire, as well as stored our luggage after checkout while we explored and then let us use the lounge to change and get ready for our flight. Much appreciated.
