Pros (+) I thought it was a lovely budget hotel and the location to all the attractions was perfect. I would recommend this hotel to travellers.
Cons (-) I didn't like that I had to pay inflated prices because the festival was on. Also I took I'll with a bug so didn't have as good as stay as planned. Nothing to do with the hotel I might add.
