Room 9 was smoke free, secluded, large and clean. Good value for money. It was a good choice for a night stay close to City. The check in & check out were expedited.

One night Stay
Shower leaked, pillows need replacing, far far too soft, felt like they were coming apart inside, be comfortable, grounds need lots of maintenance. Old style unit needs updating, but was fine for a one night stay
