Clean comfortable hotel perfectly located for visiting university
Pros:

Location excellent for visiting university student granddaughter. Convenient parking. Clean comfortable room

Cons:

Instead of a welcome note there was a list of what we’d have to pay if we damaged anything. A bit off putting!
Sound proofing not very good - we were disturbed by noise during the night
