wonderful stay in a cozy place

excellent locationgreat varietyexcellent caresignificant plus
The location is excellent as it is a five-minute walk to the tube station. Breakfast had good variety and fresh bread. The staff, particularly Lorenzo, Joseph, and Vika, showed excellent care and attention. The accommodation provided good value, a significant plus.
The room faced the street, which resulted in some noise, although earplugs were provided by the accommodation.
