Location, location, location!
Pictures as per the property, however the location is second to none. Ideal for city stays and convenience for walking or transportation purposes. Close proximity to food, shopping centres, sight seeing, and not overly noisy, with a comfy bed as well!

Strategic location and best host
The property is as seen and advertised. The location is right in the middle of the City. The Paris End, Chinatown and the theatre district are all withing 10 minutes walk. Charlotte, the host, is extremely helpful. Definitely recommended and will definitely stay here again.
