Reasonably priced hotel to see Stratford shows

Location was great for the Festival Theatre and very walkable to the Avon Theatre. The other 2 theatres we did not attend but I think they are close by too. The room was a little dated and while it is nice to have the little bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion ... I know in most hotels nowadays, they are trying to be more eco-friendly with mounted toiletries amenities.
