Solid Stay Near Pride Park

helpful staff clean room decent breakfast

The staff was helpful, promptly addressing inquiries. My room was clean, equipped with basic amenities. Breakfast provided a good start to the day with decent choices. I found the parking convenient, directly accessible from the premises.

The noise isolation was suboptimal, as I could hear doors banging at night. This impacted sleep quality to some degree. It is a minor inconvenience though.
