Pros:

Good location, easy check in, good value. Nice court yard.

Cons:

Room was not the cleanest...hair in the bed, behind the toilet and the shower had mold. The shower handle fell off when I tried to turn on the water. The room had a very odd smell.

I got a very dirty chair, and finally changed for another by asking the staff

WORST HOTEL EXPERIENCE EVER
Pros:

I didn't like anything,there was nothing on the booking stages that said we had to be 21 to stay (btw I'm 19). The staff were rude and horrible. They didn't greet us or say hello they just ignored us and kept talking to each other until I finally said something.The one guy took my id then walked away to stare at his lunch. So they said we couldn't stay because we aren't 21. I get that but they should have at least made it clear on there website and not be a smart as saying it's on there( which I checked and there's nothing on there I could find).He "claimed" he talked to a manager but I never heard him getting on the phone. They didn't help us at all and told us we would have to call booking.com where we purchased the stay to get our money back. So far I've heard nothing and it's been 3 days. He also told us that we couldn't find a hotel that would take people who are under 21 which is a lie we found a hotel not even 6 miles away. Worst experience ever.

Cons:

Everything
