“The location strikes a practical balance; it's a manageable walk to key spots, or a quick bus ride if preferred, plus there are appealing restaurants and shops nearby. While the decor might divide opinion, the bathrooms earn consistent praise for cleanliness and space, and the rooms themselves are generally well-maintained. Overall, a serviceable base for exploring the city.”
