Excellent
We verify reviews to ensure the traveller booked with Expedia Group. Travellers may receive a savings voucher when they submit a review. We publish all reviews, positive or negative, that meet our guidelines.
All facilities were well maintained and much tidier than I expected, especially kitchen and dining area was excellent.
The bed was hard enough to me unlike budget accommodation normally offer.
Definitely keen to revisit.
Thank you
