This was a great place to stay, very central to most attractions and, being a smaller hotel, it felt friendly and welcoming.

I enjoyed my stay and felt the location was great the staff were very kind and helpful and the room felt clean and comfortable, nothing fancy but that was fine with me.I had a room in the back so nothing special about the view and there was quite a bit of noise throughout the night so I didn’t sleep well due to that, perhaps it was trash pickup night or something, but I wouldn’t say the noise was any fault of the hotels… Thank you :)

I book my hotels based into location and breakfast. I like my breakfast and unfortunately the hotel let me down . It advertises breakfast included but its a small croissant and coffee to go. This is not breakfast. There is a restaurant on the site that offers breakfast but i refused to purchased it there out of principle. They should change their advertising as it is misleading. Staff were great . Room is small but its fine ,location is superb.

Upon arrival I was afraid that this hotel wouldn't impress me due to the setup, but I was wrong. You check-in at a small desk between a restaurant and coffee shop and the rooms are above. I was anticipating that given the setup, the front desk wouldn't be staffed the whole time, but there was always someone there and they were all so helpful. The room was neat and clean. There's a bookshelf full of DVDs and VHS tapes you can borrow and watch in your room. Despite it being above the restaruant, it was quiet and seemed really safe. The hotel was close to the metro lines, restaurants, and lots of other things to do. Would stay again.
