Art-deco newness

Fresh & funky art-deco newness. Well appointed self-catered rooms that feels all new. However surprisingly the bed was creaky and sloppily springy so not the greatest of comfort there. Multiple construction across the roads in the area so if your'e a late sleeper this can be a rather big problem. Noise starts fairly early.
