Lack of information provided at check in, especially about after hours access. The room was tiny and needs work/ updating. Took almost a week to get back the $150 just in case fee, more than the room cost. Called and asked for late check out, was told 11am was fine. When I checked in, again I said I need late check out at 11am. Someone came to the room just after 10am asking if I was checking out now or if I was a late check out. Then the cleaner entered the room without knocking or announcing themselves about 10.45am luckily I was just about to leave the room. Served its purpose but wouldn’t stay again.

For the price the hotel was great, clean rooms and plenty of towels and toiletries. Rooms bit dated and new lift recently installed which still had the tape on. For a short stay it is quite sufficient.

Front Reception is poor stay away
The receptionist is very unprofessional. I believe they sleep upstairs most of the day. They don't answer the phone when you call and take 5-10 mins to come down to reception to meet you when you check in/out. 14 April 2024 stay won't be coming back.

Room much smaller than advertised with huge bed and not much room for anything else. Walls are paper thin so if you get noisy neighbours or street traffic it won't be good. But a clean and functional family run hotel where you are left alone. Water pressure and temperature in old shower was surprisingly good.
