A great cheap option in an optimal location near the shopping and dining district, the pond, and the harbor. I stayed here before and after a group tour from the city. It has all the basics you need to just have a comfortable and peaceful night’s rest.

Everything was great, it's probably the cheapest option around that isn't a hostel and for that price my expectations were definitely meant, I'd stay there again. Room was comfy, bathrooms were kept clean and the kitchen was nice.

This property was in a really good location, we had a lovely room looking out at lovely Christmas decorations. We would definitely stay again, the room was a good size and comfortable bed. There is also a shared kitchen you can also store your luggage in the luggage room so you can enjoy looking around after you have checked out. Thank you so much for such a lovely stay 😊
