Perfect for what we wanted. Place was clean and central - right opposite the bus stop with plenty of local restaurants to choose from. Hosts were fantastic - they shared tips for getting around and ensured we were comfortable. Breakfast was tasty and filling, with plenty of choice. Room had tea and coffee making facilities and some welcome biscuits.
