Good for couple, not family. Very good location. Clean rooms but one of our rooms (the biggest one) got smoke smell. Put the room make up on the handle but just provided new towels, didn’t tidy up. Shower is too high and water splashed out since no door or curtain for the shower area.

The hotel’s location was fantastic—close to everything we needed, which made getting around very convenient. However, I stayed with 2 kids and another adult, and we found the room to be far too small. With two beds, there was barely any space to move around, making it feel quite cramped. On the bright side, the facilities were decent and met our basic needs. If you’re traveling as a family, consider opting two rooms or a different property altogether.

Good stay... very noisy, bang on the road. It has plus and minus. Very close to all amenities, petrol etc. No microwave or toaster, bit incovinient. We had ac/heating in one room and other room didnt have anything (twin room) Overall, it would be good for light travellers with bar and restaurant attached. It was average for our family due to few points mentioned above. It affected our sleep
