“What stands out here is the practicality; it's a budget option in a prime location near the Mayflower Theatre and the train station, notably including free parking. The rooms are simple, with kitchenettes, though the heating can be inconsistent. In my view, this place works best as a base for seeing a show or getting around town, as long as you're not too sensitive to the cold.”
