Property was ideally located close to our desired location. Clean room, linen and cutlery. Wifi listed as available on this site, but could not find any information about it. However this could be user error. Car park isn’t great and could do with A key drop box for early checkouts.

The one thing I didn’t like is that my bedroom was right next to the car park so car doors closing and opening 24/7 was annoying.

Convenience and location. Room had a couple of small things requiring attention. In bathroom, double power point has a switch that has a broken spring, you cannot tell if it is off or on. And the shower doors, the clear one has run off it's track causing the door to jam when opening or closing. Otherwise a great stay.

My husband was greeted by a women who smelt of smoke.... the lock on the door was a passage lock, the shower tray had mould spots, the tea cup had a dry ring fo coffee on the lip and the saucer and we have both come away with bites in our bodies from sleeping I the bed.... the layout of units to cars paces did not help with the exiting of adjoining unit around 4am as they packed up and yelled at each other in their room, as they walked past our room and packed their car (including multiples doors being slammed). All in all the location was fabulous and if the facility could be relayed out and cleaned it would attract a higher price tag.
