Over-harped!
Pros:

The place can just barely be classed as holiday Express

Cons:

The place is choked up. And bed is just a standard double bed.

There isn't any tea making facility in the room, talk less of a fridge!! You have to walk '10 miles'! to make tea at 11.00pm at night! Travelodge is much better.
It has been wrongly classified as Holiday Inn.

Do not stay there, not available and will struggle to get a refund
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Scam, could not contact property owner prior and no access to property. Booking.com unwilling to refund unless owner agreed to refund which was impossible as they could not be contacted. Felt helpless dealing with this matter.
