Perfectly clean room, lovely staff, highly convenient for Metro Centre, Newcastle, and surrounds. Breakfast more than adequate; no sensible reason to stay elsewhere unless one has different aspirations.

The property is good value and close to the Metrocentre with plenty of parking. The footpaths to the road are overgrown with brambles and there is no crossing if you get public transport into town. Beds are comfy and free breakfast is a plus.
