Disliked: Staff & service
Easy to access. Reasonably quiet considering it’s near a main road. The room was basic. We couldn’t access the wifi and there was no response from reception in spite of us calling and texting. Curtains were hanging off the rails in places, areas that hadn’t been dusted in a while. Not much sound proofing between rooms. Overall not bad for the cost I guess but certainly some room for improvement.

Disliked: Staff & service
The property itself was spacious and comfortable so I’d recommend for travellers who want space and separate rooms. However we didn’t have hot water on the first day/night. The curtains and general furniture were a little worn and tattered in places and the aircon wasn’t very cold. A few stains on sheets and pillow cases too, but the beds were very comfortable.
