Brilliant manager, lovely guy. Room was adequate for what we needed comfortable, clean, spacious. Located just off the main thoroughfare next door to a KFC. Equivalent to a Travelodge in the UK I would say with bigger bathroom than theirs & brilliant shower. If it’s no frills that your after at a cheap price, place is ideal

Good for value stay. Bathroom large, modern, large bath towels. It is quite dark in the actual room even with the main light on. Couldn’t use the bed side lamps as power points near the bed area are not accessible or maybe non existent? Park spots are very narrow.
