central location with helpful staff

helpful staffcentral locationcomfortable staydated hotel
i found the staff to be very helpful and friendly. the central location was convenient. the hotel is older, but it was clean and warm. i found my stay comfortable, particularly because of the central location.
the hotel seemed dated. i noticed background music playing in the communal areas, a little distracting. the room was warm, even after i shut off the radiators (i guess that's their system). a generator noise outside made sleep difficult.
