Good value for money.
Decent enough hotel that gives you everything you need at an affordable price. Good value for money but it’s not the most glamorous. Rooms and communal areas a little dated but to be expected with high volumes they presumably have of guests. Front desk service was great. Breakfast was good for a buffet with hot and cold options all you can eat. Would stay again.
