Room was adequate. Tiny and very budget but it was clean. Issue was during check in - my mother and son were with me and I wanted to leave their luggage in my hotel room because they were staying in a different hotel and had a few hours before their check-in. The hotel employee would not allow me to put their luggage in my room and insisted that their luggage stay out in the reception area and that I pay a fee for him to watch it. He stated that if the hotel allowed people to store luggage in their hotel rooms then everybody would do it. I’m not sure what business it is of the hotel what I choose to keep in my hotel room that I have paid for. This is a ridiculous policy.

Clean room. Fantastic location. Everything we needed in the room. BUT we literally had to drape one arm over the basin when using the toilet! A bit of a tight squeeze. Good shower though!

I stayed in a standard double room. It was great if you are just looking for a basic room for a short say. Very clean and the staff were polite and helpful. The shared toilet was very narrow and cramped, would probably pay the extra for the en suit room next time.
