This was a great place to stay, set well back from the road and very clean and modern. Only issue i had was that there was nobody at the front desk, checkin was done via screen or phone.

24/7 check in is so convenient.
Bed was super comfortable.
Bathroom needs an upgrade and need to give a bit more attention to cleaning.
Would definitely recommend and stay again

Clean comfortable accommodation. Rooms obviously refurbished in recent times, with modern facilities and amenities. Quiet, despite location on the highway. Easy and convenient check in process with codes rather than keys. Enjoyed my overnight stay!

Room is okay( the lady she said it’s deluxe), which has a giant TV and a giant shower head, shower head is way too big, and no exhaust fan in bathroom. Self check in, had couple times problem with the door code, but the lads she’s fairly responsive.

Having to share the TV and microwave with the same wall socket. No shower curtain. The room just gave a feeling of it being "run down".
Felt safe and close to supplies.

The property is getting a makeover and we were lucky enough to score one of the refurbished rooms which was excellent down to the huge smart TV. Very comfortable, very high bed. Complementary toiletries. Sadly the great new shower didnt have anywhere to put your soap or shampoo bottle and the lack of door or curtain meant you had to be a little careful with the water. Otherwise and excellent room for a short stay. The txt with room no and key code also a great idea to expedite checkin.
