Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Room was clean. Bed was reasonably comfortable, but would be better if it had a blanket or duvet for cooler evenings. Also there was a lack of outlets on one side of the bed to plug in and charge your devices. Staff was friendly and helpful. All in all it was a good value.
