Wasn’t sure if I would arrive in time for check in (and I didn’t), but the team were amazing, super communicative. They made sure I was able to get in no matter the time I arrived. The room was lovely. Just what I needed after a long drive, and better than I expected for the price, especially during an event! Was a great stay, will book again.

Terrific value for money. Really comfortable bed. Only reason the staff received an 'average rating' is that we checked in after hours and left very warly, so did not interact with them . We would definitely stay here again next time we are passing through.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We’re not disappointed in our stay. We needed somewhere to sleep that was cheap. The Explorer fitted the bill as the bed was comfortable, it was cheap and it was quiet. What we were not pleased about was the pool of water that covered the floor of entire kitchenette area. The shower was good, nice and hot but getting in and out of the bathroom was a bit of a trick and attempting to use the toilet took a bit of planning … super squeezy. We gave 3 stars as the room gave us what we required and aren’t very picky but most people would have given a lot less. I don’t think we’ll be back though.
