just okay, nothing special
free parkinglumpy pillowsthin walls
the location was okay for getting to the motorway. free parking was available.
The room was not great. the pillows were terrible and lumpy. It was hard to get comfortable. the walls were so thin that i could hear everything happening next door. i ended up banging on their door to get them to quiet down. it was a frustrating stay.
