"Loved our stay here. Clean, lovely staff, good bar onsite. Excellent food options within walking distance (the Indian which is about a 5 min walk away is phenomenal). Would happily come back and stay here."
"Great simple room for the night before we flew out. No air conditioning but heater and fan was provided. Good value for what we paid. Restaurant was great. Close to the airport."
"This is a basic hotel. The beds are comfortable and the rooms pretty clean. Staff are friendly. The free airport shuttle bus is great. Downsides are that it is cold (both room and water) and it is noisy: other guests and the roadworks that are currently near by. The noise continued into the early hours. However, it is a budget hotel and therefore reasonable value."
"Our second time staying here for an early morning Airport Pickup/Drop off and just as clean and friendly as the last. Just what we needed for the night; a comfortable bed and a clean room. Will definitely be our go-to in future for these trips."
