"I was looking for a place, close to the train station - without paying premium prices, for a short one night stay...and I told the young lady as I was leaving, that I would definitely stay there again one day soon...as it fitted the bill, in terms of expectations against price. In an incredibly expensive city, it gives great value for money - and the service of the staff, including Laksh(?) in the evening who ordered a taxi and knocked my door when it arrived, shows great customer service,...

"You're above a pub, but right in the city centre, for real cheap. It's highly convenient, clean bathrooms and bedding, but be warned, it's above a pub. Its a bit noisy until late, but that's expected. Can't complain really. We left some headphones and keys behind but they were very kind to ship them back for us! Would recommend if you're in for a couple of nights and just need a bed. Gud price"

That is the only criticism I would have. "
