central location and friendly service!!!

amazing locationhelpful staffdaily housekeeping

The location is amazing. I could easily walk to many key attractions. the staff was helpful. They moved my room because i had quite a few bags, this meant i didn't have to climb many stairs. the room included daily housekeeping. This service kept everything tidy and refreshed.

The room was somewhat warm. I couldn't adjust the radiator, but a fan in the wardrobe was helpful.
