8/10 Very Good! (1,009 reviews)
The only criticism I have is at the official address is in the rear. So when we first arrived, our Apple Maps app sent us up the street down a side alley to the rear door. Other than that service was good, the pub connected to the lobby was excellent. Just a great experience.

9/10 Wonderful! (2,450 reviews)
Great location, but the bathroom wasn’t very clean and there were issues with the hot water. Customer service was good. We only stayed two nights and spent most of our time out exploring, so it wasn’t a huge deal. The small kitchen is cute and the beds are okay.

Friendly staff. Room was ready early so they let us check in. Suite was nice and looked like the photos. Cons: You can hear everything. People above were very loud walking around for ages early morning and late in evening. Really weird smell in reception room and downstairs.
