The hotel is dangerous. I would never ever stay here again. The types of people I saw lurking and staying there really frightened me. Staff go into your room when your not there and steal from you. Bookings are not honoured flat out the staff and management are so lazy they still have Christmas decorations up in April. It's the worst place I have ever been in my life. This hotel should be closed down

Conveniently located and perfect for a quick, efficient overnight stay. The carpark was also very convenient, with direct access to the rooms. The room and bathroom were impressively clean. There was a bit of a musty smell when we first entered, but the air cleared as soon as we turned on the air conditioning. I especially appreciated that the bathroom didn't steam up after a shower! The bed was comfortable, though worth noting it’s two singles joined together (fine as long as you don't sleep right in the middle). The "kitchenette"was well-stocked with a fridge, microwave, kettle, toaster, and even tea/coffee/milk. Don’t expect a view, but for a late arrival and early departure, the key safe made everything seamless. Very reliable and tidy.

It was an average stay; lacks lift (not ideal for heavy suitcase/s), and don't recall being informed of this until after booking. Television remote didn't work, so once on couldn't switch off/ change channel- unless out of bed and behind the device.
