For a quick stay it was fine and good value for money. Previous stay room was better.
Pros:

The room was clean and didn't smell stale. The bed and linen were comfortable. The facilities were adequate for a one night stay.

Cons:

The curtain was damaged and let in the light that was directly outside the room. The tiles in the bathroom were chipped and the sink was crazed. It was also quite noisy being on a corner and on the ground floor.

Pros:

It was reasonably priced. It was pretty clean. Bathroom looked like it had been recently renovated.

Cons:

It was a little further out than I had anticipated. The bed was a little too soft for me. Only had free to air channels which I do not watch anymore.
