Excellent Location and Comfortable Room

My room had recently been upgraded. It was quite spacious. The bed offered really good comfort. The hotel's location is a definite highlight. I easily walked out to the heart of everything.

I found some noise due to the window isolation. The smell of smoke was present during the night. I had seen a sign prohibiting smoking.

The restaurant served a very good dinner.
