We stayed here after watching a show at the Enmore Theatre. All the staff were great and check-in/out was so easy. Honestly, there's a little noise from downstairs but it was quiet after 11pm and we didn't mind because we were getting back late from the show anyway. Super easy walking location to shops, restaurants, the train station (like 10 mins to Central) and the Enmore Theatre.

4 guests and 1 key is a bit weird. 4 guests and 2 towels is also a bit weird. Locked balcony door and no windows that can be opened gives a bit weird indoor climate. But price was cheap so all as expected and ok
