the parking area was a good size, which helped a lot. staff were friendly and the food was decent. breakfast had a good range of options.
My room felt a bit old and could use some refreshing. the bed wasn't very comfortable. It was one of the worst i've experienced. the noise from the nearby road was noticeable, especially at night. The windows did little to block it out.
