The location is excellent. It is very accessible to many main attractions by a short walk. Breakfast included a wide variety of options, which i found appreciable. The staff was very friendly (very helpful indeed).
The room seemed a bit old. The shower door did not work properly. The hair dryer was ancient and inefficient (it had very little heat or air).
