“Great location. Friendly staff. Lovely tea and coffee station in hall. Water bottle and glasses by side of bed. Although the room and bathroom were small, lots of touches were added to help maximize the space.”

“The room was small, but very clean and comfortable. There was no noise from the street. They provided coffee, tea and even some fruit. It was across the road from the promenade and on a bus route.”
