Only stayed for around 10 hours and had no complaints. Check-in being a bit slow is probably the only thing I can think of to not give it 5 stars.

The first room I was given 103 had stains on the bedsheets white stains, don’t even want to know where that is from. The second room I was given 226 the toilet flush was broken and the blue light in the bathroom kept flickering. Was very disappointed. The breakfast was great anlso on till 11am, and also loved the fact you have blind out curtains. The bed was comfortable enough
