The hotel needs a serious makeover and update as it looks really old and dirty, but it does have a balcony. Unfortunately, there was an overpowering smell of stale urine in the rooms. On the bright side, the staff were all very helpful and friendly, providing loads of local information during my 10-day stay. The location is convenient, right next to all the hire car options in town, even though the pool area looks neglected with cracked tiles. The dining options were just average, not bad for $15, but a little overpriced for what is offered.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient with all amenities within walking distance, but the room overlooked a car yard that was noisy in the mornings. The service was accommodating, although they missed acknowledging my membership status. The dining experience was subpar, but the facilities were adequate.

The room, although on the ground floor and close to reception, had a odd smoke smell and could use some refurbishment.
