"We had a wonderful stay. The self check in was so easy. The room was comfortable and spacious enough for three adults. Handicap friendly with convenient parking across the street. Very close to the main shops, restaurants and pubs. The fan was nice and we comfortably slept with the windows open. Cafe downstairs was ok. Convenient but not necessarily great breakfast. I would recommend this location."
