“Great location. Very clean & tidy. We were upgraded at checkin by Lily as we had booked a room upstairs but she moved us to a ground floor room as we had luggage to carry. Fridge and microwave in room was a bonus”

“Booked 2 rooms but as they were originally in different areas of the building the hotel very kindly moved us next to each other at no cost. Location is excellent close to Santa Cruz broad walk and downtown in equal measure. TV's come with Amazon...”
