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.

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!
