Big clean rooms

Overall great spot, big place, super clean, and great location. It’s more a self contained apartment setup so there’s not shampoo / conditioner which isn’t a big deal but would have been nice to have for a short trip.

sweat box

3 nights stay for work . Arrived on a 36 degree day at 2 pm to be told the power was out and no idea when it would be back on . Beyond that there was no follow up with information . Power was restored 8.30 that night so had no AC all that time so room was a sweat box . Nothing after the fact either . An apology for the inconvenience would have been the norm but nothing . Beyond that the room was ok , it served the purpose and the girls enjoyed the roof top area for sunning themselves . A barbecue would have been nice up there !

I stayed here for about a week and chose this place because it had cooking facilities. I found it very convenient, with shops nearby and everything I needed to cook and do laundry, which was great. The facilities aren’t new, but they are clean and functional, so it met my needs perfectly.

Bed was too soft. Kitchen could have been better equiped. Didn’t have a jug to put water into fridge. Only supplies 4 coffee sachets for a 2 night stay. Building quite old. All windows quite corroded and difficult to open and shut. Our door didn’t self close and had to be vigilant that the unit did lock when leaving. Had a great stay regardless. Out second time there and probably not the last.

I've been to this hotel before and we liked it, but this time we stayed in another building and everything is very old and needs a deep cleaning.

The property was in an excellent position, walking distance to shops and take aways. The bed was comfortable, staff friendly and very helpful. There was a starter pack provided consisting of tea and coffee, salt and pepper, paper towel, detergents,fly spray and a lot more. The only downside was the parking- very small spaces and very low. Not nearly enough room for bigger vehicles.
