It's not the Sheridan but it's the next best thing I would recommend staying here it's just a short walk to the city centre, 2 pools to swim in friendly staff
John, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a low-budget hotel, so the rooms are simple but well-aired and bright. The staff are fantastic! So kind and welcoming. And the hotel is well-positioned - 10 minute walk to everything.

Cockroaches in room, stains on bedding and loud drug affected patrons making noise all night
Adele, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This room was very basic but could have done the job if (I’m guessing) the maintenance staff weren’t banging, yelling abuse, coming and going constantly, entertaining, and get drunk or off their face on drugs in their area right next to the room we were allocated at all hours of the night No other staff on site at night Not a wink of sleep for us and an earlier flight… do not recommend, things need to change! (Receptionist was lovely when we checked in)
Amanda, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not enough parking, Too many people wandering around the motel at night that weren't staying there. Motel very dirty in hallways, piles of dirt and fluff just left there. No service to rooms over the three days.

I would say this property is the dirtiest room I have ever stay in. I was worried that the bed would have bed bugs. For the $200 per night rate I expected much more
