All rooms above a barbershop on a parade of shops. Good size room, generally clean, a little grubby around the shower area. Overall, we would recommend it.

It was fine for one person, especially for the price, and if you don't need to stay in the room during the day. The loo, shower and sink were all just in one small tiled room with no shower curtain and with minimal ventilation.

Okay for the price.

A converted flat above a barbers in a not so picturesque part of town. Room looked recently decorated and was clean with a shower/ wet room, microwave and mini fridge although the mattress was old and uncomfortable. Advert says free parking, this is only true if there’s a space outside the shops everywhere else is resident parking only, I had to drive around for 15 minutes waiting for a space to open up. All in all you get what you pay for.
