Great location, reasonably priced. We did receive an upgrade to a larger room so that worked well. Could use a small sink in the kitchen area between the lounge and bedroom to rinse off dishes.

Spotlessly clean room and friendly staff, great location. Room was a bit small and parts of it were a little old and tired. Tiny, awkwardly shaped bathroom with a huge shower that had a weirdly positioned shower head. Not a fan of the toilet roll holder either. All in all clean, reasonably priced in a great location.
