charming stay, prime location
perfect location helpful staff good breakfast
the location was perfect, steps away from everything (i really mean it). the staff was friendly and ready to help with questions about the area. breakfast had a good selection, the eggs were cooked perfectly.
The dark corridors were a bit off-putting. More lighting would greatly improve this.
