So I reserved our room before reading reviews because I saw it had an overall good star rating and was reasonably priced. As we got closer I read some reviews and got nervous. Some people mentioned surroundings being questionable, dirty room, and bugs. Upon our arrival we were greeted by the manager and proptly assisted with our check in. He was very courteous. Our room was nice. Had enough modern updates, was clean, and very comfortable. I stripped back the blankets and such to check for dirt etc... and found nothing but perfectly clean white sheets! My family slept well. TV worked, shower had great water pressure and temperature. My only complaint is that the shower head was low... but I am tall, so it was no big deal. Thanks for a great stay, we'd definitely book again if passing through!

The girl at reception couldn’t understand us so it was a bit of a challenge to check in. The room was up a wobbly metal staircase which was difficult whilst carrying cases ect. The room itself was just ok. The door frame on the inside of the room was hanging off exposing nails, the wooden floor looked clean but was not which the socks I put in the bin can attest to. Would I stay again? No
