Service was very friendly and helpful. Location within reasonable walking distance into town but plenty of buses if you don’t feel like it. Crowley Road is a very eclectic mix of shops cafes and bars. Room a good size we had an additional bed for a young child.

Very clean room with a comfortable bed. However the shower had almost no water pressure in the morning, and was cold. I showered on arrival and it was hot so I don’t know how reliable it really is, but the staff was otherwise very helpful and solved my only major concern right off the bat.
