The staff at the Gateway are welcoming and obliging. While the rooms are a bit on the shabby side for an overnight or couple of nights it’s fine. Hospitality

Our recent stay at Gateway Inn over the weekend was a pleasant experience. The room was generously spacious, as was the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, and the atmosphere was quiet—perfect for relaxation. There was plenty of parking available, which added to the convenience. The provision of ample tea, coffee, and biscuits was a thoughtful touch, and having restaurants on-site was a big plus. Overall, it was a very good stay and exceptional value for money. While the room felt a bit outdated and the WiFi reception could use improvement, these were minor inconveniences in an otherwise satisfying experience.

Liked the spa bath and the double shower. The air conditioning sucked, room was like a freezer. The tap configuration on the spa bath is wrong.

The hotel itself was clean and reasonably appointed. The staff and clientele however, was questionable. It took several hours to get the staff help on an extremely noisy guest and when confronted was told it wasn't their responsibility. Given the choice, would not stay again. Especially during peak period.
