Pretty dam good
Pros:

Clean and nice. Good bed and good shower. I didn’t read the reviews until I got there and every review was worse than the one before so I don’t know if we just got lucky but our room(17) was fine! No complaints at all!

Cons:

Nothing to dislike. Maybe the undercover parking area could be bigger but I can’t think of anything else

1 good experience here and sadly 1 bad.
Pros:

Location. Comfortable bed. Decent tv.

Cons:

Wasn't sent access codes prior to check in. Took me to call and delayed me half hour on the street before being allowed in after agreed 2pm timeslot.

Bathroom was tiny and had very old fittings. Sliding bathroom door broken off its runners. (Couldn't close it).

Shower screen door very old, fragile and falling out of its runner at slightest touch.

It was comfortable enough but could be greatly improved with my comments above.
Pros:

Opening and closing of doors was quite load, especially at 2am.

Cons:

Shower panels were very rusted and looked horrible. They should be replaced.

Being able to access some streaming services (even at customer expense) would be beneficial.
