It's in the name, 'budget'. Okay if you just need a bed, bed is reasonably comfortable & linen clean
Pros:

Clean linen

Cons:

shower and toilet pod - no actual bathroom, no shampoo or conditioner just one soap for everything, had to get hair dryer from reception. windows seem paper thin, letting a lot of road noise in.
