Acceptable Location, Deficient Room
dim light poor maintenance
The location was convenient, very close to everything I needed.
The room was quite cramped. The maintenance was poor and there was only a very dim light. It felt more like a very expensive hostel than a hotel room.

a decent option for a short stay
central location nearby shop clean room steep stair strange smell missing towel
the hotel's location is quite central. many shops and restaurants are close by. the room was generally clean, and i found the provided amenities acceptable.
The stairs were very steep. i almost twisted my ankle once. the bathroom had a strange smell. it smelled strongly of fried food. there wasn't a floor towel, so i worried about fungal infections.
