great location and helpful staff

helpful staff great location front desk
the staff at the front desk were very helpful with directions. nadia provided many ideas of places to visit, and she was very informative. the location was great, and everything was walkable from the hotel. it was right outside the door, very convenient.
The room was small, and it was located above a noisy air conditioning system. this extraction system operated for the lower floor. the tv was not a smart tv. Most functions were unavailable.
