Read the google reviews before you stay here! I foolishly just saw a decent number rating on expedia and booked without looking further. The whole place is fairly run down, I had one of the partially renovated rooms so the bedroom area itself was ok, but no blanket or quilt on the bed just a super thin top sheet and none spare in the cupboard. The beds are on wheels and slide away from the wall if you try to sit up in bed. The bathroom windows are cracked and the frames are all rusted, the shower hasn't been sealed properly so its mouldy, and there isnt enough ventilation in the bathroom so it has that damp smell. There is also a lot of road noise from the highway. Its very basic and there is some interesting clientelle hanging around the place. If you want a clean and restful nights stay this isnt the place to get it.

Good bed and great little Thai takeaway next door in the other hotel. This hotel supplies breakfast (as long as you collect it yourself before 7pm or you don’t get milk or breakfast). It’s supposed to be pet friendly but it’s hard to get a pet friendly room when booking via an app.

The room we stayed in was tidy and clean. It had a fridge, microwave and kettle which is very convenient especially if you’re doing road trips. They also offer some breakfast items at the reception before you need to go to room which again very convenient.
