It's hard to judge a place that you've been living in all your life. I can't really give an outsiders view, but insiders knowledge. As a student in this town I have the added benefits of knowing some relatively cheap places to drink and eat (whichever is more important to you!!) If youre looking for tourist qualities its not ...  Read the complete review
