Lovely modern studio apartments

Really nice modern studio apartments. Friendly staff, easy to check in and out. Clean and lovely communal areas. Room is a reasonable size and comfortable. Breakfast was nice, buffet style with various options (not a full english). Access to soft drinks in the communal area 24 7 is a nice touch. I'd happily stay again.
