A very enjoyable stay. The rooms were small but comfortable. The only thing missing was a kettle or coffee machine to make hot drinks. Friendly staff. Breakfast was the same each day, acceptable if it's included in the rate.

Our stay was incredible: staff was very friendly since the very beginning, the location of the hotel is great since many main attractions are at walking distance, breakfast was really good, the bed in our room was really comfortable.
We really enjoyed our stay overall.

The staff were very helpful and great location too
A few minor points in the room that could be easily fixed.
The toilet was running constantly and flushed itself a few times.
The sink plug leaked so to keep water in it, had to keep running.
Both of those could be fixed easily so no problem.

Very clean small rooms. Cleaned well everyday. The Staff was very good at offering suggestions for the area. The area is surrounded by colleges so it’s a younger vibe but felt more than safe.

Location good, hotel room very small - bathroom uncomfortably small - power went off on Sunday evening for a short while - the hotel is being decorated so constant smell of paint, no notification of this prior to our visit -. Mire comfortable places to stay in the vicinity for similar price. On check out told receptionist only okay, did not appear concerned
