Convenient location near the city centre but on a fairly quiet street. The room was large, spacious and comfy. I could not find the switch for the bathroom light so that stayed on throughout my stay - but maybe I am just unobservant? The Italian restaurant downstairs was excellent. A shame they don't offer breakfast ,but there was a good cafe only a 5 minute walk away, so that was fine.
