Large 2 bedroom unit, not flash but very well appointed, clean, comfortable, quiet and very functional.

Good location and very good value. Don't be put off by the multi-coloured exterior of the two blocks!

Reviewed 3 April 2019

Staying at this hotel for 6 nights, and have found it to be very quiet, clean and easy accessible. Everything works well, and is fine for our needs on this trip here. Handy short walk to hospital, which was what we needed and cannot complain about anything with our unit. Over all a very pleasant experience and comfortable stay here.

Room tip: There are stairs, so if you need, try to ask for ground level.
