For the price, this was a clean hotel room, and comfortable. Breakfast was good, as well. Having to carry my suitcase down two flights of stairs was really the only drawback.

Large room with lots of space. However, very basic breakfast, disappointing room amenities and not a warm welcome on arrival. Business model seems to be to take advantage of one-off visitors with as little outlay as possible, not to get repeat business.

The room, which was in the back on the ground level, was large and very quiet. Hotel is centrally located and even has a very convenient Tesco Express grocery store just a short distance down the street. Mass transit is close. Hotel staff gave us exactly what we requested. We highly recommend this hotel!

Loved the Location. Room was spacious, clean and bathroom also.Breakfast not really good. Room oriented on the street and could hear the noise from the traffic outside. But other options seemed available. Bed comfortable. No fridge in the room and no safety box. Staff very nice. No water available in the evening except sparkling water. But overall we had a good short stay.
