The hotel was close to the Clock Tower where we would meet for the tours. That made it very convenient. Our biggest issue was the noise at night and the small bathrooms.

Bathroom in a very small area. Sink faucet was loose so it was two hand operation. No hand soap was provided for the hand washing sink.
Overall location was good, staff was courteous.
