Excellent Location and Service

helpful staff central location included breakfast

The front desk helped me get a taxi quickly. The breakfast included basic items, and a made-to-order main dish. I enjoyed that the hotel is quite close to important places in the city. Everything is within walking distance. The staff was VERY friendly and helpful. They gave me a map with information.

The carpet on the stairs had some stains.

helpful staff convenient location fresh omelets missing window slow elevator unsafe street

the hotel is very close to main landmarks. i could walk to most attractions. the staff were always ready to assist. breakfast offered fresh omelets a la carte, i liked that.

my room lacked a window. this was a notable problem for me. the elevator seemed slow, i had to wait several times. the street outside felt unsafe at night, i needed to be cautious.
