Good location but we were next to the indoor pool and had people coming in and out with just a towel around their waist. Not the most pleasant sight. Room was a little small.

The room was clean, but it felt dated and had a condensation smell. Beds were clean and comfy. Had enough outlets which was nice. Noisy outside on a main road and can hear other guests.
