Excellent central location with easy access to transport links. As it's not on a proper road it's very quiet at night, so no sleep disturbance. Tea bags and milk were refilled daily without asking (sounds odd to mention but you don't always get that in my experience). It's nice to get back to the hotel after a day of sightseeing and have a brew.
