“Would like to go back”
I truly appreciate the staff person who mailed my wallet to me which had been left in a taxi on my way to the rail station and which was returned by the taxi driver. What a relief to get that back. The location is excellent for getting around the interesting places in Norwich. There is a nearby pub which is a bit noisy at night. I would certainly stay there again and would recommend to anyone. I found the personnel all very helpful. People in Norwich were also helpful and friendly.
