This hotel is a gem right in the heart of the city, surrounded by plenty of shops and restaurants. The rooms are cozy and offer a great shower and TV, though the price could be more competitive. The service, especially the housekeeping, was top-notch. A few unexpected dining choices but overall satisfying. The facilities are decent, though some could use an upgrade. A decent place for a convenient stay.
