Meh..
You get what you pay for, i suppose. Its right next to Legoland and M6 was the cheapest option/closest motel so in turn did end up saving me a good chunk of money.

Terrible
No iron, no ironing board, no blow dryer, no coffee maker, bed sheets were stained. Bathroom and room floors were gross. Baseboards had all kinds of dirt around them. BEDS WERE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE and slid all over the bottom frame. Lights didn’t work on the lamp or the top headboard.
Other guest were smoking weed in there rooms and when we had the vent on, it would come in our bathroom and room.
