the location proved convenient (I walked everywhere!). it was only a five-minute walk to the central station and various restaurants. the main reception area had a stylish feel with a fun photo booth, I enjoyed using it with my friends. our superior twin room had tall ceilings and ample space.
during my stay, i found that the staff were not always proactive with information. i had to request housekeeping specifically, and this wasn't communicated to me upon arrival. i discovered only on my final night that i needed to inform the staff one day in advance.
