Loved the easy parking not fronting a main road, so the noise comes into the room front doors much less. We had the easy access room No1; it was spacious with a very comfortable medium firm bed, a kitchenette and large bathroom. Good range of TV channels. Welcoming and informative front desk staff. Right across the road from a New World supermarket makes the kitchenette even more sensible.

Everything was pristine and so clean. Could not sleep due to traffic on road behind us. Also given handicapped room with shower that put water all over the floor so it was wet underfoot. Could not use bathroom without getting wet feet and very slippery.
