great location river location immaculate hotel human management cramped bedroom dated bedcovers headboard cover
the location was great by the river. it was close to the infirmary bridge, so the other side of the river could be easily accessed on foot. the hotel was immaculately presented. actual human management was on premises.
my bedroom seemed a bit cramped. the headboard cover was a curtain, honestly. bed covers were a bit dated.
