Great!

We loved that it was only a 15-20 min walk to many popular sites. Quiet area away from all of the busyness without feeling like you are missing out. Staff was kind and accomodating. Beds were comfortable. Lots of food places a few mins walk away. The bus to get to the airport was also a very short walk.

Perfect accommodation for someone in their 20’s for a couple of nights! Simple and easy, would stay here again :) If I was to be picky, maybe a few more bits in the room (hairdryer, cupboard hangers, hand wash etc,)
