Value for money, but a memorable experience for the wrong reasons.
Pros:

The room was clean and had all the usual facilities

Cons:

The room was way too hot and the bed was way too small. Accessibility challenging, especially after charging the car and having to do it all again.

A handy stop for a cruise
Pros:

Good location in Southampton for a cruise the next day. The staff were absolutely amazing, thoughtful and anticipating needs, really above and beyond.

Cons:

It’s an older property and like a lot of buildings in our recent heatwave was absolutely boiling as it doesn’t have air con - can’t really be helped at the moment.
