A Solid Stay with a Few Hiccups

breakfast selectionconvenient locationstreet noiseroom size
The breakfast selection was diverse and fresh (I especially liked the pastries). The service was efficient, and the staff remembered my name after the first day. The location was very convenient for exploring the city. The bar was well-stocked, and I enjoyed the variety of cocktails available.
The room size was smaller than expected, especially considering the price point. The noise from the street was noticeable, even on a higher floor. I found it a bit disruptive during the night. I also had some trouble with the shower temperature. It fluctuated unexpectedly.
