the hotel is centrally located on a quiet street. it's a short walk to the main square for early morning taxis. the beds and linens were AMAZING!!! i also appreciated the minibar. the front desk service was very nice.
there were cigarette ends outside my window, not ideal at all. i feel the refurbishment needed a bit more consideration.
