Handy base close to hospital
Good value motel very close to the hospital. Stayed in an apartment which was very clean and tidy with good facilities. It's located on a busy roundabout so there's a bit of road noise to contend with - earplugs are supplied!

Despite the roadworks outside, we enjoyed our stay. Lovely comfortable unit, close to town and supermarkets only a very short drive away. We would definitely use Gateway Motor Lodge again 👍
