All Good, very reasonable prices, I recommend customers leave luggage in car until checked in, as accommodation is on opposite side of car park, no complaints, very nice staff, and accommodation presentable, very good food and drink choices, IMPORTANT-- the room key (card) is also used to enter the accommodation block as well as your room.

Good room. Very quiet. Communication in advance was a challenge and early check in is expensive for a budget room. However, it was a good and comfortable stay with friendly on site service especially from the man tending the car park on match day.
