"Great location, close to many restaurants and all of the supermarkets, good parking. Check in was fairly simple and straight forward, I was on the first room of the ground floor right outside the carpark, I thought it would be noisier but it was fine. Room was comfortable, and well priced. No air conditioning or temperature control so the room was very warm, My stay was in mid November, The TV only had free view and only 8 channels. "
