I loved my stay here. It was affordable and they were very generous with the breakfast. The room itself was nicer than my dorm room at my university. It was very spacious and comfortable and the bathroom was very comfortable. The extra fee for a private bathroom was well worth it. The location was also wonderful. I could not have asked for a better place to stay.
