“I found the proximity to the city centre exceptionally convenient, a short walk that avoids the higher prices of accommodation closer in. The rooms, while straightforward, impressed me with their cleanliness and the comfort of the beds. For those arriving by car, the included off-road parking is a significant advantage, though it operates on a first-come, first-served basis.”
