The location was certainly a highlight. It made it very easy to explore nearby attractions. I appreciated the breakfast buffet. It included quite a lot of choice. My room was spacious, which I enjoyed.

Its operation made me a bit nervous. There were no international channels available on the TV. The chair in the room was uncomfortable.

The tea and coffee were available, but milk was missing. I even had to ask for it. the luggage room wasn't locked. also, the curtains did little to block out the morning sunlight. the staff's friendliness varied. Some weren't particularly helpful.

the location was very central. all the tourist attractions were within walking distance.

The room had a minor unpleasant smell. I think it was due to the building's age so probably nothing can be done. also our room was very dusty. I think it was due to the carpet not being vacuumed in a while. you could see heavy dust particles in the air.

The location was ideal for sightseeing. I liked that the breakfast had many options. The room was big. I also enjoyed the nice restaurant.

The service felt average to me. The pillows were not comfortable in the room. The noise was a downside. I heard everything from the crowds outside and loud music in shops downstairs.
