Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests were pleased with the range of amenities such as washing machines, dryers, and a pool, as well as the friendly and helpful staff. However, many found the beds uncomfortable and noted issues with cleanliness, particularly in bathrooms and under beds. The location was convenient for some but a bit far from town for others. Overall, the property is considered dated and in need of refurbishment, but offers good value for the price, especially for short stays.
