A Mixed Experience

helpful staffconvenient locationbreakfast varietysmall roommissing amenitiesstreet noise
The staff was helpful. The location proved convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions. Breakfast offered a satisfying variety of options. I found the room was quite clean.
The room I stayed in seemed small. I also noticed the hotel lacked certain amenities, like an on-site restaurant. Street noise made sleeping difficult at times. I found coffee less than stellar.
