Staff was nice and room was clean. Walls were so thin I could hear next room over talking and the tv. There was constant slamming of doors. Breakfast was a very small selection.

Clean room and friendly staff with a very decent breakfast. Coffee not kept hot throughout the day but that’s understandable. Access to the gym area was blocked due to card reader malfunction but, again, that was not the fault of the staff and is just one of those little things that happen from time to time.

My only complaint is the water faucet in the bath flowed at little more than a trickle. It was frustrating and not acceptable.
