“For a budget stay, this Claremont option presents a decent value, especially for family visits when location trumps luxury. While some may find the rooms a bit worn and the beds too soft, the well-kept grounds and access to nearby markets add considerable appeal. I think its greatest strength lies in providing a functional, if not fancy, base in a convenient area.”
