the location was quite convenient. i could easily walk to many sights and points of interest. the staff seemed friendly and gave helpful recommendations. the breakfast buffet provided a very good start to the day.

i noticed the bar in the basement was not soundproofed properly. i could hear the performances clearly in my room. the bass vibrations even made the mattress tremble. the noise went on until late, made sleeping difficult.

the rooms are decorated with some lovely art. the basement bar is quite cosy.

i was upset the air conditioning only had two settings. it was either hot or hotter and their was no option to cool the room down. admittedly, the staff were apologetic.
