Cost effective cheap overnight stay on route of driving somewhere. Basic but does the job.
Pros:

Location and price. Stopping off to sleep only.

Cons:

It desperately needs some basic maintenance of paint and plaster and there was a terrible chemical burning smell in the corridor.

Pros:

Check-in staff are very helpful
The room was nice
Small room, but served its purpose for one night

Cons:

The heating was left on wondered why the room was so hot and I actually burnt my hand on the radiator
The next morning I went for breakfast and the woman at the bar was most unhelpful and actually went to charge me for breakfast despite of being included in my room price and had a funny tone when I told her I was actually a resident
