Solid Budget Stay

friendly staff constant wifi smart tv

The staff were very friendly and helpful. I appreciated the on-site 24-hour security. It was useful to have access to the kitchen for cooking and the bus stop nearby made getting into town easy. Free, consistent WiFi and a HUGE Smart TV was a plus. This meant I wasn't stuck with just free view channels like other places.

Parking was difficult. It reminded me of cars were parked everywhere with rubbish scattered around the site. There was a sign for additional parking, but it didn't seem trustworthy to leave my car there. I noticed broken items and general untidiness.
