Charming stay near the Opera

great locationhelpful staffnoise issues
The location was PRIME, right next to the opera house, with access to many attractions. The staff was helpful and ensured a comfortable stay (i was actually surprised).
I experienced some noise issues due to nearby venues, made sleeping a bit difficult at times. Modern double-glazed windows would greatly improve the soundproofing.

the location was quite central, which i guess is convenient.
The rooms were kind of falling apart. They were supposed to be "beautiful," but looked more like the beautiful version of a budget motel. the air conditioning barely worked, and the noise from outside? atrocious! it sounded like a party bus doing laps all night long.
