The room featured a comfy bed and a nice bathroom, though the shower size was compact. The setup includes basic toiletries, like shampoo and body wash, stocked daily by housekeeping staff. The linens were clean. I appreciated the simple, functional layout.

an okay hotel stay

convenient locationhelpful staffsmall roomhigh price
the location was convenient. it was near everything i wanted to see, so walkable i did not use public transport much. the staff were helpful in answering my basic questions. i even received complimentary water when i arrived, a nice touch.
My room was really small. I felt a bit cramped. it felt overpriced for the size of the room. i paid a fair amount per night, but it was like it should have cost less.

excellent locationpastry varietyineffective air conditioningstrange smell
the hotel's location was definitely a plus. i found it very convenient to walk to many attractions (i always prefer walking anyway). breakfast had quite a good selection. i especially liked the variety of pastries (a sweet tooth is a problem, i know).
the air conditioning wasn't very effective. it. also, there was a strange smell in the bathroom (i think it was coming from the drain).
