unbeatable location short walk helpful staff quiet street
The hotel is located on a quiet street. Major attractions are a short walk from the hotel. Public transport is also nearby. The staff was helpful.
The bed was a bit too soft. The small room didn't have much floor space, so suitcases took up a lot of space. I missed having more counter space in the small bathroom
