My wife and I like to travel the "Rick Steves' Way", meaning that we shun tourist traps, package tours, and large chain hotels.

Excellent accommodation with a high standard of decor and fittings. Modern, warm and light. Traveling in and out of the city by the local bus was really easy which meant we did not use the car for the duration of our stay. Evening meals were available within walking distance too. I would recommend Bentham Lodge to friends. More
