The hotel is on a quieter street. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean and had everything we needed. It was an easy walk to the supermarket and restaurants.

Room was clean and tidy and looked like it had been fairly recently updated so felt fresh and tasteful despite the outside looking like a fairly old, traditional motel. Had everything we needed including an air fryer which was unexpected. Bed was comfortable and staff at check in was very friendly and helpful.
Mirror and basin were in the kitchen area rather than the bathroom which made that space a little cramped.
