Not too bad for what you pay for.

Comfortable bed and great shower, room was clean. Only small things lacking like an ironing board for the iron, no tissues or face washers and the shower head showers the roof as well as your body. Otherwise value for money if you’re not too fussy.

This is a budget hotel - but the beds were soft, rooms relatively clean. There's a bit of chipped paint and out of date styling. You get exactly what you pay for so don't expect a 5 star luxury experience and you'll be fine. Car parking is a bit limited as more units than spots.
