the staff were amazing! they were so friendly and always ready to help with anything i needed. the breakfast was really good , with lots of choices to get my day started. the location was super convenient , close to everything i wanted to see.

my room was quite noisy because it faced the street , , made it hard to sleep sometimes. the stairs are really steep , and there's no lift , which was tough with my luggage. the tv reception was spotty , and i couldn't watch some of my favorite shows.
