the location was acceptable, providing easy access to nearby attractions.

The lack of an elevator presented a considerable inconvenience, especially with luggage. the breakfast setup was also odd. One had to exit the hotel and re-enter another area. i found a humid smell in the bathroom. This impacted my overall comfort.
