A good value
This hotel offers a reasonable price point which is less than comparable hotels in this area. The central location is great, as is the secured, off-street parking and bicycle storage. Having access to a fully-equipped kitchen helps to stretch your travel budget a little farther.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Some rooms are smaller than others
Guests found that some of the rooms and bathrooms at this hotel were too small which was problematic for those dealing with places to put their luggage and those who wanted extra room to manoeuvre.
negative:
Guest rooms need an update
This hotel is beginning to show its age and sure could use an update. Guests commented that furnishings and linens past their prime, beds and bathroom fixtures in need of replacement, detracted from their stay.
negative:
The walls are thin
Many guests were disturbed by the sound of voices coming from the room beside them and footsteps above their heads, as the walls and ceilings at this hotel are rather thin.
