10/10 Excellent

The location was quiet and the trees blocking the view of the nearby street were both beautiful and effective. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It was removed from shopping/sights and so not walkable, but otherwise a wonderful place to stay.
