We had a great stay with Merelda. it was so nice having milk and tea given to us and being able to use the kitchen. We loved having a tv in our room too. Merelda is very warm and friendly and made us feel right at home. It is a bit of a long commute, often requiring transfers before we even got to the city if we were going to Victoria station. This could make staying out late difficult. However, places closer were triple the price, so in that sense it's worth it.
