Good value for this location
Pros:

Great location, good breakfast and big rooms.

Cons:

Dust under the beds and lack of furniture (not many chairs, tables, cupboards etc.). Also, there was no carpet and there were glue stains on the floor that made it sticky.

Nice for a night maybe longer if they upgrade the outdated beds
Pros:

Great lovation. Staff were friendly enough

Cons:

The beds were awfully uncomfortable. The room wouldn’t beat up and there was someone elses hair through the bathroom and shower. I know its not mine as I have bright purple hair.
