Decent

We arrived early as in 20 minutes the owner was informative, the bedroom clearly a family room, tea and coffee provided, hairdryer provided sign saying be quiet between 11pm and 8am but you could hear people in other rooms specially when using bathroom the carpet threadbare but for the price it was ok, cuttelry would have been useful as well as plates, shower mat for safety also a good idea

Great price for large room
Property was very helpful with parking and eating establishments as we arrived after most eateries had closed. Good price for a large room with multiple beds, love seat, private bath, and loveseat. Minutes from downtown area across from a park. Be aware Hotels.com advertising as free parking and this is not true! Property owner has requested correction many times but sure will not update listing. Just ask where to park when making a booking.

Good value for money
The room was cosy and clean and had all the things I needed for a brief stay; hairdryer, towels, en suite, a kettle for tea and coffee, a tv.
The hotelmanager and chambermaid were friendly too.
Only one thing, there was this lingering smell of sewage in the room, which I didn't report.

Shower drain did not work in our room. Could not finish showing before the water started overflowing to the floor. Heater didn’t work when temperature dropped below acceptable room temperature.

Lovely getaway.
Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It may be a budget hotel, but don't let that fool you. Very nice place and, more importantly, very clean. More than happy.
