Anonymous, May 2017
Pros (+) This hotel is the closest to the Town Hall/Albert Square. Getting there from the train station cannot be easier; the tram stops right in the corner, a few steps away. It is close to everything in down...
Cons (-) Room was odd shape without good views, but it was not bad.
