Quiet, clean and friendly staff!
Jasmine was ao friendly and professional! She checked us in quickly and everytime we walked by the front she always greeted us and wished us a great night! The rooms were a little musky smelling, the tub didn't drain on it's own and the towel bar by the sink was falling off. Some updates to the hotel would be highly recommended!

The staff was great we even got an early check in but unfortunately the conditions of the hotel were not up to par. It was dirty, smelled like mold, our room smelled like it was wiped with an old wet rag. We knew they were working hard to get the other rooms ready for the other guests so we did not complain but it was to the point where it made our stomachs hurt.

Average stay.
Initially given Room 104. On arrival evening check in person, said she couldnt look at why this room stunk like a dead squirrel! As it was not safe for her to go into allocated rooms! Room smelt so bad and mouldy! Insisted on a room change as felt this was a health risk to us. Check in person unable to give any local information as to what local eating facilities were open. Next allocated room ok. Breakfast was disappointing! Staff need more education and training in hospitality
