Didn’t live up to expectation. Would not recommend.
Pros:

The staff were friendly and make contact ahead of our arrival about our check in.

Cons:

The door had a large gap around it which let the light in all night, the fan in the bathroom didn’t work, the toilet made a weird noise about a minute after flushing, the shower was either boiling hot or freezing cold and the hot and cold labels on the bathroom tap were around the wrong way.

Overall our stay was not enjoyable and very disappointing in both the customer service and room.
Pros:

We really enjoyed the location and being close to the city centre.

Cons:

We didn’t like the cleanliness - we moved beds from original place and underneath we discovered there was a lot of rubbish and dust underneath the bed. On that same note we also discovered blood stains on the blankets which in my opinion was very disgusting. Our TV also was not working - I complained to the receptionist and he said he would fix that later on in the day, we then returned back to our room later that day and realised that he had not done anything about it. The next day after we checked out we raised these concerns with the SAME receptionist from the previous day and he asked if i had spoken to someone about this in which i did speak to someone and that someone was HIM and he denied it and said it was not him when I am certain he was the person I spoke about these issues

Pros:

Location

Cons:

Was issues with room cards. The motel could not issue room key cards as there was an IT issue and could not be resolved within the 2 days of our stay.
