The staff was amazing, genuinely made our trip so smooth and were extremely helpful at all hours. The room it self was quite dirty, with some mystery marks on the walls and sofa, but for a group traveling that mainly needed a landing pad, the beds were clean and the bathroom was okay. Would stay here again just for the staff though!

The place was cute and catchy. There was a heat wave when we were there and they were passing out popsicles and ice cold water bottles to all their patrons. The lobby air conditioner was not working so they had put in some type of swamp cooler to make us comfortable, which was really nice. They were very helpful and made sure that we were as comfortable as possible even during the heat wave. Once we got to our room, it was perfectly fine. No issues kitchens were a bit dated, but for what we needed and for the price, it was great.

Good location and reasonably comfortable. Air-conditioning wasn't so effective and pillows were quite lumpy. Dissappointed that car parking was not included, especially as the car park was empty and daily charge was significantly higher and less safe than nearby garages. Overall it was an ok experience but could have been better.
