Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was good and there’s a parking (for additional payment), but overall terrible. The smell in the room was so bad, and even after opening the window it didn’t help. Our shower was leaking, and overall room didn’t feel clean. Safe didn’t work as well. The front desk staff was nice and the only benefit was the view of a beautiful street. But honestly it’s better to pay a little bit extra for comfort and stay somewhere else.

Great location - easy to walk to restaurants and shops. Room was clean and staff were friendly. The only thing I would say is that the shower door needs to be adjusted or needs a gasket because after a shower the floor outside was soaked.
