Nice place and room lots features-but sadly I guess due to housing shortage or DV or who knows, people seemed to be living there-I have bit too much empathy, PTSD triggering when see people on hard times. Went home feeling guilty-stupid I know. Will return as no complaint business just lot people seemingly on hard times.

Very homely with a free continental breakfast. Situated on a busy road but there was no major noise issues from our room. A service station is directly across the road & two takeaway shops also which was very handy. There is no designated parking & we were lucky to get a spot inside the complex. Would stay here again.

Highly Recommend

We were overwhelmed by the hospitality, service and condition of the room. We highly recommend. A bit tricky getting in and out as the traffic lights are right at the entrance but seeing that was the only small hassle it was easily overlooked. Service was exceptional. Thanks so much.

Its an old motel/motor inn. Very tired, however the room was clean. Seemed like its in a rough location. Funny looking guests too, gave caravan/trailor park vibes. Didnt feel safe at all. At that price point theres way better options in the city. Would not stay there again and dont recommend The gentleman was kind enough to let me have an extra 30 mins after check out time - a plus
