Satisfying Stay

convenient locationflexible check-incomfortable bedfriendly staff

The location is very convenient. It is near the university and other places. The neighborhood is nice. Rooms are very comfy and tidy. I found the staff very kind and helpful (they really do go the extra mile). I was able to leave my bags after checkout. The rooms have kettles with tea and coffee. Check-in times are flexible. The shower and hot water worked fine. The bed was comfortable and the bedding was fresh. The room had lots of space. I thought the location was perfect for visiting the area. The room size was good enough for sleeping. It had space for bags with a closet. The ground floor room was close to the main door. I appreciated the simple room. It was easy to find. The check in was straightforward and quick. ALL the staff I met were very friendly.

The paid street parking nearby has a maximum stay of three hours. you can't bring visitors to the room, which could be an issue for some.
