Liked the stay, it was WONDERFUL for the price. Everything was perfect, the parking was nearby, the room was immaculate and light. The location was magnificent in a very quiet area, adjacent to all the bus rutes and citycenter. Newington district was worth staying in. Everywhere there was fairly clean.
