Check in was interesting. We were asked if we'd stayed there before, (good) and we replied no we haven't. It's our first visit. She handed over the key and said we're on the 4th floor. It would have helped if we were then told where the elevator was (not visible from check in desk).

Great location to the mainstreet. Within walking distance to all local amenities. Hotel staff had great vustomer services, everything well explained. The room was spacious and beds comfy, Seperate toilet was a little outdated looking but didnt affect function. I liked that this hotel had a water filter on our floor and a laundry room available which was such a bonus. I would definitely stay here again and recommend anyone stay here. It also had a restaurant and sports bar for those like me who stayed in. Thanks!

The staff were really nice. Restaurant great. That is where it ends. This is a 1960-70 ear no money spent in the rooms. I had a double bed that was I think 1970 smelly old duvets. No real heater in the room a little noisy panel thing that really down nothing. Cold shower crap pressure. I don’t call it a hotel. It is a back packers at best
