For the price this was a great place to stay- bang for buck. Staff were over accomodating and super friendly. I travelled with mum and forgot to ask for the sofa bed too. We asked for sheets to make it upourselves but they insisted that they make it up for us and did. Great spot, close access to everthing but in a quieter part of town. Gave the real holiday vibe.

The room was clean, Smelt good once we walked in. It had no faulty electrical switches. Amazing staff, really considerate although the shower head was a tiny bit broken and on full blast would spray out the side and hit the floor it was no issue to just simply turn down the pressure. All in all an excellent experience.

This is a cheap budget hotel and excellent value. Very nice staff exceedingly helpful I understand they’re in the realms of upgrading the property and you can see areas where it is indeed upgraded. A little more attention to cleaning would be a good idea.
