Nice hotel, would stay again. Check in and checkout fast and efficient. Good parking for those requiring pick up. Room was large and well appointed, fittings in wardrobe and tea making facilities a little bit dated. Bathroom clean however shower recess could do with a spruce up but acceptable. Overall good value and a nice place to stay.

We stayed for a short time connecting at the interchange early the next morning. Staff were lovely and very quick to get us to our room. Staffed 24hrs. Easy checkout and we also could leave our luggage for a week which was handy as we were hiking. Room was large, clean and comfortable. Great stay for a night to recharge.
