“What struck me was the genuine warmth of the staff; they consistently came across as both helpful and approachable, making check-in particularly smooth. The rooms manage to be quiet and comfortable, a welcome aspect given the proximity to major routes, and the overall cleanliness of the spaces, including the bathrooms, was notably good for the price point.”
