The hotel is good, but it's a little worn down. The fridge in my room didn't work, and I had to call the front desk 4-5 times over 3 days before it was finally working. There were also small problems with the toilet. They all got resolved, but it was effort on my part.

Very clean, large size room. Same can be said for the bathroom. Love the bed. The only thing to dislike is the poor quality TV which reminds me of the 70s. Forgot to mention I enjoyed each morning till 9:30 a lovely breakfast of scrambled egg , home fries link sausages and bacon. In one word, very good hotel for price quality hotel
