the location near the river was acceptable.
The room size was smaller than advertised. This caused some inconvenience. i found it difficult to reach the hotel entrance with luggage because vehicle access is restricted. the absence of air conditioning made the room uncomfortable.

The location was lovely. I find something at the city center. I did not want to pay much. They also has a parking spot, but it was in few minutes by walk.
Rooms are tiny. The pillows was horrendous. They were mentioned in other reviews, but they was even worse than we expected.
