central location complimentary coffee

The location is quite central, near many attractions. The room included a desk, very useful for planning my daily excursions. The hotel offered complimentary coffee in the morning, a simple but appreciated amenity, the staff was nice.

The hotel lacks an elevator. Carrying luggage to the upper floors was difficult. The stairs are very steep, so anyone with heavy luggage must be prepared.

Acceptable stay in central location

friendly staff fantastic location accessible location small room noise disturbance missing elevator

the staff was really friendly. it was comforting to know there was always someone at the desk. the location proved fantastic for accessing many points of interest. i walked to museums restaurants and shops with ease.

the room i had was quite small. there was barely any room to move around the bed. noise from a nearby bar was bothersome at night and sometimes continued until early morning hours. even earplugs did little to help block out the sound.

mixed feelings about this hotel.

small bathroom sink steep steps

i found several aspects of my stay less than ideal. the bathroom sink was very small. it was more suited for a toilet than actual washing. also, the lack of an elevator meant a tiring climb up steep and narrow steps. the climb was quite difficult each time i had to reach my room.
