Eyre Square Hotel

Eyre Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is perfectly located a block from the train station and a short walk to the main shopping area. We did stay during an unusually hot time and they do not have air conditioning. However, the front desk did whatever they could to try to make us feel comfortable (provided two fans). We stayed in the room with a queen and one twin bed (3 adults) and there wasn’t a lot of wiggle room but did the job! "
