The unit was excellent, well stocked and clean. However the man on reception did not have a very welcoming manner. I'm not saying he was not efficient in issuing the key. A smile would have been nice.

Checking in was very pleasant. The Owners were very friendly and helpful and welcoming. Accommodation was excellent. Only improvement would be some technology plugs for the work desk area.

We have stayed here many times over the past 15 years. The mattresses are getting very soft, like past their best now. Slight mould on some window sills, not good for family asthma. Very old smoke smelling reception area. Still very good rooms and service. Good value and friendly people.

We had a unit closer to the road than previous experience, and it was very noisy all night with the trucks going pass.
