Its the perfect location. Near lots of shops and restaurants. Walking distances to almost everything. The down fall if staying more then 2 nights is no English speaking anything on the TV. No new BBC nothing. You come in from all day out and about and would just like to catch alittle on news beside watching you phone.

Great staff- friendly & helpful. Very efficient use of space. Strange thing about Europe and no shower food or curtains — the water goes everywhere no matter what you try to do to minimize it. Also, the Air Conditioning was minimal, there was a preset limit on the temperature.
