Very good budget hotel
Budget hotel but the best you could expect for the low price. Very good size room and good shower. Bit of a creaky floorboard above when people walked on it!

Great quick stay
A cheap stay on a motorway! Did what it said on the tin! Bathroom needed repaint and faint smell of cigarette smoke but very quiet, receptionist and housekeeping were lively. Bed comfy and clean.

Bed was very uncomfortable. The noise of people walking about in the room above my head was terrible, thought there was a herd of elephants in there

Didn’t risk the shower.
A comfy bed and a perfectly acceptable cheap stopover on a long journey… but it was pretty grim.

Great value for money
While one could nit-pick (receptionist seemed surprised to have to explain the set-up to us, we'd never been before, broken light in the bedroom flashing and clicking, fan in the bathroom not working, whole place pretty shabby and tired-looking) nonetheless the bed was comfortable, the black-out was good, there was no road noise and the shower was smashing. Overall, amazing for the price. I'd go back.

Vil jeg absolut ikke anbefale min værste fjende
Det var meget gammelt og i forfærdelig stand. Der er enormt lydt og vi kunne høre alt i hele huset, ovenpå var så lyt at hver gang personen gik (kl 05:00 om morgenen startede det) så rystede metallampen og hele værelset. Det var en forfærdelig oplevelse og det kan ikke anbefales til selv min værste fjende.

Great for a stop over
This is a great place to stop over, the reception staff are lovely and really helpful, I think the ladies name was Sarah. The room was clean and comfortable but the bathroom was not as good, the fan didn’t work which has subsequently made the metal toilet roll holders and other metal items rusty and the bath was badly chipped which made it look dirty. We had 2 large double beds that were clean and comfortable with extra pillows I would stay there again.
