Had a really nice stay. Weather was on the hot side so nice to have a air con room to cool off. Shame the seating area around the bar and where you eat food was air con as that was a bit uncomfortable to enjoy a relaxing time with a cold pint

Good stop over
A good hotel for a single night stop over, definitely good value for money with breakfast included.
The restaurant was very quiet during dinner and service was on the slow side, we'd probably go elsewhere if we were to stay again.
The room was clean and the bed comfortable, the curtains cut out the majority of light and the bathroom was clean and tidy too.

Decent hotel for the price
Decent sized room and bed and bathroom was clean. Room carpet let it down with some horrible stains on it and floor boards were creaky throughout the hotel. We have a yearly family get together nearby so location was good and we will likely return next year if prices are competitive. Air conditioning was good in the room and made a big difference.

We have stayed at this hotel a number of times as it is conveniently located near to the university. The rooms are of a good standard. It would be nice to have bedside power sockets to charge phones etc.
