"It was a convenient and affordable base for seeing the city."

7.0

The staff were helpful when needed, e.g. calling a taxi. Also, it was very affordable.

The room was very small, and the toilet was down the hall. I expected that for the price. although just how small the room was (no room for a desk or table to put my laptop on) was disappointing.

"Friars Rest provided a comfortable, homey, and safe environment with easy access to favorable sites."

9.0

I loved the location and how safe and secure it felt. It was very comfortable and I had a great stay!

The only thing I struggled a bit with was the hot water for the shower was a bit inconsistent. It would not stay hot and didn’t always regulate very well. Sometimes it was warm, other times too hot, and other times cold all at the same temperature station.
