the hotel was conveniently located near transportation. the management arranged good rooms cleaned daily. staff helped with luggage and taxi bookings to the airport. the location was great to walk to various places.

loose wires were visible and work seemed unfinished. i asked for towels and toilet paper multiple times, but they weren't always delivered. i also noticed wet floor signs were missing.
