friendly staff helpful staff shower flood toilet issue
The staff was REALLY friendly and nice. They were very accommodating and helpful. I'm thankful for that. We needed to extend our stay. They moved things around so we could stay in the same room.
The shower flooded. I could not maintain the flow of water while showering. The toilet could not remove the waste by just flushing. This was a problem.

friendly staff secure storage great location small tv old-fashioned place soft mattress
The staff was very friendly, and they let me store my bike in the garage! they even supported my cycling trip. That was so thoughtful. the location was great too because lidl was just across the road. everything was clean and tidy, which i appreciated.
The tv in my room was small. I could barely see it. the place seemed quite old-fashioned. It could use some updating. also, the mattress was too soft for my liking, not firm enough.
