The property is in an easy position, staff is approachable. Bed is clean but I sit on the couch in the room and felt itchy. The property is on main road and is not that quite at night. I want to save my luggage for a few hours and was charged extra $5.

Staff really helpful allowing me to check in early and clearly have a great cleaning regime. However the place itself is looking a little tired and needs an update and lick of paint. Great value for money however!
