The location was good, with plenty of parking spaces. The en-suite room was quite small but the living room and dining room were very spacious. Very easy self-check-in was a bonus.

Clean, quiet room; comfortable bed. Paula was great at check-in and helpfully pleasant during our stay. A couple more hooks to hang up clothes would have been nice, as there was no closet.

room was tidy and basic with towels and the owner was very apologetic for the not so smooth check-in good if you want cheap quiet accomadation but the shared toilet and shower is quite questionable as it was blocked with hair and human waste... book a room with private bathrooms
