lovely street view

central location helpful staff comfortable bed

The room had a lovely balcony view. i appreciated the very central location. It was quite convenient. the staff were lovely. i found them very helpful, and i would certainly consider staying there again, the beds were comfortable too.

The pillows were not very great. They could improve those. it was not a major issue, though.
