Pros:

I liked the rooms , separated single beds that was what I need it. Very clean and safe.

Cons:

Above room 101 it was a very annoying noise after 9:00pm. Couldn't sleep. It sounded like somebody was working out , leafting weights and dropping them off on the floor very heavily.
Also breakfast should be included in the price.

A clean and comfortable hotel with a cafe in a convenient location.
Pros:

Perfect location for us, being a short walk from the hospital. It was spotlessly clean and the staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The decor was quirky and really interesting.

Cons:

The room was tiny and the bathroom ventilation was inadequate.
