Clayton Hotel Burlington Road

10/10 Excellent
"Room was comfortable and breakfasts had a remarkably wide selection. The location was very convenient to Aircoach stop and to other transit. We only called a cab once during our stay, the rest of the time we were able to get where we needed quickly enough by walking or using buses. The neighborhood where this hotel is located was very peaceful and quiet. There is a beautiful canal a short distance away."
