decent stay
good location clean room comfy beds high price basic room basic breakfast
The location was very good. I could walk to every point in the city. The room was clean and the beds were comfy. The bath has everything you need and the shower worked well.
The hotel is too expensive for what it offers. The rooms are pretty basic. Breakfast is just as basic (i found it average).

EXCELLENT Stay!
central location good size helpful staff restaurant recommendation
The location IS AMAZING. It's just a short walk to the main attractions , surrounded by restaurants. The room was a good size and VERY clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. They called a taxi for me and provided restaurant recommendations.
The breakfast, while good, could have offered a bit MORE variety.
