8/10 Very Good! (72 reviews)

This accommodation had a great location, central and close to great restaurants and sight seeing. The staff & service was excellent. I did not have the breakfast so I can't speak to that. The room quality was average. Needs an update/refresh. Street noise was very loud on busy street and difficult to sleep soundly.
