Central Stay

I appreciated the central location near Eyre Square. I could walk easily to shops, restaurants, and transportation. The hotel provided convenient access to local attractions. I also found the staff cute and helpful.

The room felt a bit small, limiting movement. I found the bathroom especially cramped. This affected overall comfort. I think a slightly larger room would greatly enhance the experience.
