Won’t be back.
Pros:

We thought it was nice due to location and ratings online

Cons:

I hate leaving bad reviews, but I’m sorry I have to warn others especially with kids. The room smelt of cigarettes. It was so bad, we all had to have Texa and use Vicks, my daughter had a massive sinus attack and we were on our way to a sporting event - it was too late to find alternate accommodation but I really contemplated driving on with our journey. Cockroaches in bathroom. There must have been a leak because it looked like bad waterproofing had been done on the ceiling at the light. I’m not sure if someone was kicking me all night or if the bed was just that uncomfortable. Bathroom windows couldn’t open, we didn’t try the others we were to scared to touch anything else.

I’m sorry but room 47 should never be used. Just use it for storage or something.

Was a good stay.
Pros:

The location.

Cons:

The bathroom is very dated and could use a little more care. Because it is so old it looks dirty even when it has been cleaned.

Pros:

Very well appointed room for the price range. Location not very attractive but a perfect stopover for a one night stay.
Coffee shop in the corner of the shopping area was excellent for breakfast.

Cons:

Would have liked some form of cutlery and plates to eat takeaways in the evening.
We just didn’t feel like eating in all the many restaurants available.
