“In my opinion, this is a good choice, primarily for its location near the city centre and Canterbury West station. I noted that the rooms are clean and well-maintained and that the budget options don't skimp on comfort, and the beds are firm. The ongoing refurbishment may be a temporary drawback, but the refreshed bathrooms suggest a positive direction.”
