convenient locationhelpful staffquick accesslimited viewnoisy air conditioning
the location was quite convenient, as it allowed quick access to many attractions. a supermarket was nearby, and , made getting supplies easy. i found the staff helpful , particularly with directions and local tips.
my room faced an inner courtyard, so i had a limited view. the air conditioning unit was somewhat noisy. This was a little disruptive at night.

decent locationunhelpful staff
the location was pretty decent. it was near enough to things, i guess.
It was like waiting for godot, only slower. and the 'modern designer shower knobs'? don't even get me started. I needed a phd to operate them. the front desk staff acted like my shower problem was beneath them. so frustrating

Solid Stay NEAR Palace

I stayed in room with easy to use heating. I had a bath. It was a room facing the inner yard. The location proved very convenient for city sightseeing. The heating system kept the room comfortable without issue.
