Clean and comfortable place, central location
Clean and spacious. Very helpful and friendly staff. Much better than we had expected and would definitely recommend. We chose to stop here as a cheap option for a quick change and shower as we had an early morning flight. If the shower had been better this would have been a five out of five review.
