wonderful stay!

walkable locationfriendly staffhelpful directionsgreat location

i found the location very walkable to many restaurants and shops. there were many things to do and see nearby i liked breakfast very much. the staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful with directions i wanted to see the city. the hotel is in a great location because it is within walking distance to the heart of the city.

the hairdryer in the room was not very good it felt a little cheap. this did not significantly impact my stay but is worth noting for future improvements.

mixed feelings about this stay

convenient locationpoor drainageineffective fan

the location was definitely a plus. it was very convenient for getting around.

I was disappointed with a few things. the shower didn't drain properly, so i was standing in water. also, the fan in the bathroom was not effective. It didn't remove any steam (this made it very uncomfortable).
