My room was clean and had nice fresh linens and towels. Staff were very friendly and helpful even offering directions to amenities.
The room is a bit run down…holes in walls and damaged floor. Bathroom has been refreshed and I enjoyed a nice hot shower!
I will come again.
Cheers!

Our room was clean, room was tight with 2 double beds but perfect for a nights stay. Recommend that if you have any mobility issues to ask for a room on the ground floor as they don’t have an elevator.
