Cheeky little city break
10.0Perfect location, happy and friendly staff, fantastic accesible room, the burritos from the street vendor down the road, loved everything especially distance to the step free underground and ofcourse the distance to the cable car.
The bathroom floor was incredibly slippy on the edge of the bathroom, ( next to the sliding door ) Our 2 nights went far to quickly.
