“Would stay again”
The closeness to town. Whilst it was right on the road it was quiet and very little traffic noise. It was older than many but very clean. The fact that they will make up your room daily was a surprise.

You get what you paid for. Could do with a room refurbishment, they are outdated. Got a lot of ants in the room also.
