Pros:

The room was clean, and the staff were friendly

Cons:

Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

Parking is outside and can be limited in busy times. No toaster in rooms. The configuration of the room with two bathrooms and toilets was unusual and unnecessary. It's a little difficult to move large items to the room.

The bikes needed a service and were difficult to ride. The rooms were small but comfortable. More PowerPoints could have been useful,
