I had an overall fantastic experience at this hotel, which was packed with great features at a reasonable price. The location was so central to everything we wanted to explore, and the complimentary amenities made our stay even better. The only drawback was some noise from the streetcars outside, but it didn't overshadow the enjoyment of our stay.
