Comfortable stay near Mathematics Institute

large fridgeextra heatercoffee machine
The room was great and very close to the Mathematics Institute. I found a large fridge very useful, alongside an extra heater and fan. A coffee machine, extension cords, and an ironing board were also available. The toiletries offered were nice.
The shower design presents a hazard. The door's height above the slippery tiles made entry and exit challenging.
Location

The hotel IS situated in a quiet residential area, about a 15-20 minute walk from the town centre. Bus services are also easily accessible, located just a short 4-5 minute walk away. Free parking is also available.
