From the second we arrived the staff were friendly and welcoming. We were allowed an early check in and enjoyed a cool refreshment from the mini bar in reception. I would definitely stay again and can recommend to anyone looking for a quick stop over.

I liked the friendly atmosphere with all staff, cleaners are quick & do a great job, if you need anything see them at the front desk & they will do their best to accommodate, the only thing i found annoying was the noise that the guests make, the constant slaming of doors!!! It's not hard to turn the handle & close, not fling the door & slam, its the guests who don't care & should have more concern for others, it was a very busy weekend that would have caused this, I would highly recommend a stay here, the rooms are neat, clean & well set-up, with a good TV, small fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee & tea facilities, air/con, iron & board some have wardrobe & draws also a 2 seater table what more could you want! 5* rating for my stay.
