To sum it all up, my stay was great as usual!
Pros:

Everything went very well. I really enjoy my stays here because I am at peace here completely honestly. I love that I am surrounded by everything.

Cons:

To be honest, certain residents will irritate me with the loud noises and arguments. I can completely ignore them through and continue enjoying my stay there.

All in all, cheap but quite poor.
Pros:

The room was fine and had a fridge and microwave. The shower was good and there were plenty of towels.

Cons:

Entering the property is a big welcome sign however the car park is behind locked gates and surrounded by 6 foot barred fences. Not a particularly warm welcome! Once inside the security continues with gates around the lobby and check in through a prison style window. I wondered what I’d let myself in for, is this a dangerous town? The bathroom was really rundown, plaster falling off the ceiling, shower curtain just about hanging on the wall, toilet cistern poorly fitted and no plugs in the bath or sink. I didn’t get a good sleep since there was a lot of light from around the door and window curtains, courtesy of the car park floodlights (more security I guess). Also the AC unit was very loud, possibly because the front was hanging on by duck tape.
