East Norwich Inn

East Norwich Inn

8/10 Good
"I enjoyed my 2 day stay but I understand it when others have mentioned how there's a faint smell of dampness and like old cigarette smell. I observe that the place is aware and they're slowly renovating the place. I opened the windows to my room and after couple hours was fine. The front desk staff was nice and helpful at least. I got locked out from my room which tucked but they helped out. The location is convenient and quiet."
