Good value place to stay when doing an airport pickup.
Pros:

It was fit for purpose and served our needs. Tidy, good sized rooms and nice pool.

Cons:

Not anything in the establishments control, but the noise/music from outside on the street was loud and annoying especially when picking up family from the airport from the redeye flight. However, when speaking with staff about the purpose of our visit they gave us extra check out time in the morning which was nice.

Pros:

Staff were friendly- Just didn't like the request for bank card number as 'deposit'.

Cons:

Room was quite stuffy 🤧, waterjug dirty, toilet bowl and seat not quite clean.
Bed sheets were ok but the pillows were smelly.

If you can afford it go elsewhere
Pros:

Cheap, but it is cheap for a reason

Cons:

Dirty, room smelled like mould, mouldy pillow. Very loud, the people in the next room sounded like they were standing next to me. Shared balcony with room next door. They were smoking and it stank out our room. Limited reception hours. Lost my card to get into the room, the person who came told me they would be 20 minutes, turned out to be over an hour.
