Excellent value for money, plenty of parking available
Pros:

For what I paid the room was everything I needed it to be. Spacious, excellent facilities and clean. Staff were incredibly helpful and kind!

Cons:

Walls are somewhat thin so I could hear the piping in the rooms adjacent. Very minor but the pressure in the shower was a little poor, not really an issue though.
