Decent stay close to museums

convenient location friendly staff helpful staff limited space inadequate soundproofing small lift
The location proved very convenient for visiting museums. The Natural History Museum was quite close. I found many nice cafés in the area as well. The staff members were always friendly and helpful.
The room I had was not spacious. Space around the bed felt limited. The sound proofing seemed inadequate. I heard noises from neighboring rooms during the night. The lift was small and somewhat old.
