If you are looking for a budget trip, it would be a great idea and lots of restaurants nearby. However, it is quite noisy during midnight and weekends (pub street). Staffs are so helpful and nice.

I only planned to stay one night, but it was so comfortable that I ended up staying a week. It's conveniently located near the station, and the staff are kind. The large kitchen makes it easy to interact with other residents. I had a comfortable stay, like being part of a family.
