Mixed feelings
Pros:

Beds were comfy and room was clean

Cons:

When I arrived I asked for an early check in I arrived at 13.30pm when check in is 14.00pm I went to the room because I received the codes and was then told I had to leave the property and wait in my car for 20 mins until 14.00pm hit this was a completely ridiculous situation considering the room was done

For a cheap one night stay it has everything you need
Pros:

The property was in a great location and the cleaning staff we met were very friendly.

Cons:

The extractor fan in the toilet did not work and the pillows on the bed were very thin and used so they could do with replacing
