“The location is undeniably central for exploring Bristol, placing you within walking distance of the city's attractions. I noted the artistic decor aiming to reflect local culture, while the in-house restaurant has a diverse European menu, including breakfast. I think that the noise from the surrounding area could be an issue.”
