Westminster College enjoys a reputation for its beautiful, historic college building and convenient location, just a short walk from the city center and colleges. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, some of which feature a kitchenette with a fridge, toaster, kettle and microwave. The on-site parking is a definite plus for many, and the cooked breakfast served in the characteristic dining hall is usually a highlight, though a few guests have noted that the sound isolation could be better.

convenient locationdisabled parkingplain roomhigh price
The location provided convenient access to local shops, colleges, and restaurants. Disabled parking was also available on site. I found this very convenient.
The room felt rather plain and lacked amenities like pictures or a television. I also thought the price was high for the level of comfort provided. The room was basic. I expected more for the money I paid.
