the location was central to everything i wanted to see i found plenty of sights within easy walking distance and it made evenings out quite simple they provide a handy luggage storage room which allowed me to explore even before check in i found this very convenient. the hotel staff offered great service i really appreciated the warm welcome upon arrival and their attentiveness throughout my stay. my room was surprisingly quiet and clean it reminded me of a real haven after long days.

Acceptable, but some letdowns

small bathroom thin walls
the hotel location worked well, near central amenities.
I found the room quite small, bathroom especially. i could clearly hear conversations and the tv from neighboring rooms (walls seemed thin). it definitely impacted my sleep quality. I wish the soundproofing were better.
