Cheap and Cheerful
All I needed was a bed, shower, somewhere to keep my bag and be within walking distance of Winter Gardens. This place ticked all the boxes. All I cared about was that room/en suite was clean and it was. Nice place with friendly owners it is ideal if you're planning to be out all day just need somewhere to lay your head. Thanks guys. If I come back again will be looking you up.
