Great budget accommodation in Central Lincoln

Convenient location for a night in Central Lincoln. I cannot comment on how noisy it would be during term time though.

Stay in Lincoln

Nice little room, perfect for one night stay. Had everything needed. The only suggestion would be to add some light curtain so it helps with some privacy during the day.
