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.

Nice tidy and clean room, had everything we needed. Nice and quiet. Great location. Limited parking and took me a while to work out door systems. Just different to what I'm used to, never spoke to another person, just walked in and walked out without seeing anyone.
