Central Location and Excellent Service

central locationfresh breakfasthelpful staffspecial decor
The hotel is near Chapel Bridge and stores, made exploring easy. Breakfast had many fresh and delicious options. The staff put my wine in their fridge and opened it for me later. I found this particularly helpful. The hotel decor created a special vibe (I loved it).
The lack of air conditioning in the room was noticeable. I had to open the window for airflow, but that let in street noise.

The breakfast offered fresh bread. The selection seemed adequate. A QR code provided free bus transport .
The temperature was higher than 25 and it made sleeping difficult. Two fans were provided but they were inadequate.
