It was fine - the room wasn’t the cleanest, one staff was not the friendliest, the beds not the comfiest - but it wasn’t bad. Average stay.

The property was fine. Nothing special. The rooms were a bit dated, and not pristine in terms of cleanliness, but it was more than sufficient for a weekend stay to visit a college student.
