Not A bad hotel, would be closer to a travel lodge standards, certainly not 4 star. Bed was adequate, bathroom very tired but functional, doors locked etc. expensive for what it is. The additional restaurant has an average food offering, very corporate type menu. All in all a standard 3 star over night hotel but at 4 star pricing.
