Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We’re not disappointed in our stay. We needed somewhere to sleep that was cheap. The Explorer fitted the bill as the bed was comfortable, it was cheap and it was quiet. What we were not pleased about was the pool of water that covered the floor of entire kitchenette area. The shower was good, nice and hot but getting in and out of the bathroom was a bit of a trick and attempting to use the toilet took a bit of planning … super squeezy. We gave 3 stars as the room gave us what we required and aren’t very picky but most people would have given a lot less. I don’t think we’ll be back though.
