The property is conveniently located close to everything. Unfortunately there’s no way to leave your luggage there if you arrive prior to check in but there are a few paid luggage storage places near the train & bus stations. Would definitely stay there again.

I loved my room at the Woodquay. It was so cozy and had everything I needed. The bed was super comfortable and check in and check out was very easy. It is a very short walk to all the coffee shops, restaurants and other places to go, like the Latin Quarter, the Long Walk and surrounding area. I would definitely stay there again and totally recommend it for others.

No way to choose a room that I could tell so ours was right by the only entry door with a ground floor window to the street. We paid well over $300 a night for it. The room was nice, basic but fine. Very clean . Good bathroom.
