This is not a honeymoon suite or a summer vacation rental. This is a "stop driving/working and get your head down for a decent night's sleep" kinda place, before getting up and carrying on with your journey/labour somewhat rested. It is priced accordingly. I watched staff work hard at keeping it clean.

Still smells of cigarettes
The room smelled of cigarettes despite the hotel being listed as no longer allowing smoking. Will not be returning.

Decent overall. The room had a faint smell of smoke so they clearly have had guests who didnt care about anyone else. Room was very good. Big fridge, good tv. Plenty of space. Good bed. I like lots of pillows but the 2 were nice
