Perfectly reasonable for a business night away
Pros:

Staff were very friendly, and for a budget hotel it was nice that it had a bar and functioning restaurant. Well located as I was working in the local industrial area but nothing else around the hotel to explore

Cons:

It was next to a restaurant, but found that that shot very early in the evening. Fortunately, there was a bar in the hotel. Beware of parking and make sure you register.

Pros:

It was absolutely nice and clean, in a quiet area, which was perfect for my trip!
The staff was very friendly and helpful!
Thank you!

Cons:

My only problem was that I couldn’t open the bathroom door fully and I wouldn’t say I am slim…
Apart from that, the whole room was excellent!
