It was clean, great amenities, great location (although if you are sleeping on the sofa bed it can be loud at night, to be expected for the location right on the shambles). Easy check in.

Myself and my family with 2 young children stayed 4 nights. It was comfortable and had all the basics that we needed. I felt safe and quiet. They allowed us an early check-in. The location was absolutely fantastic and we could walk to everything. Thank you!
