Clean and Convenient Stay
easy access public transport coffee pouches helpful owner
The location allowed easy access to public transport! The bus stop was a short walk away, and it made getting around very easy. The room included a kettle with coffee pouches, very convenient for morning refreshments. The owner was helpful. They allowed us to store our bags after checkout.
I noticed the bathroom sink needed better cleaning. It seemed slightly blocked. This was a minor issue, but I hope they address it .
