"All in all a reasonable stay we give it 3 stars."

6.0

Location ok.

The appearance inside the units very dated, Finding a couple of cockroaches a bit annoying. The light switch on one of the bedside lamps faulty, not being able to tell anyone not good. The smoke alarm battery going flat and causing it to beep in the early hours of the morning not good passed message to staff after we removed it so as to sleep nothing was done
