Good hotel close to attractions and transport

Pros: Friendly service
Room was small but had a bar fridge and bed was comfortable, had a fan blowing air through the room from the window which was nice. The breakfast and dinner was good too. The bathrooms were cleaned regularly and I didn't find there to be much noise around the place at nighttime.
