The room was cleaned and available with a fridge, a bath plus comfortable beds. Breakfast with the bottled water and good vegetarian options, as example. Location really close to the shops and restaurants. Characterful base for exploring Colchester.

We think it's a suitable place for staying in Colchester. The best thing is location - not far from town centre and zoo, a train line and the shops & restaurants. Lots of goodies for breakfast.
