I stayed here only for a short time but it was great! Everything was walking distance, I didn’t hear any of the rooms next to me, didn’t hear anything outside. The room was clean and the staff was friendly. Definitely would come back.

Room was clean and roomy, but the heating system was very noisy and on the second night the smoke alarm beeped all night long, quite annoying and we did not sleep well.
