advantageous location local cuisine convenient taxi

The hotel location is advantageous, very close to major attractions. I found several excellent restaurants nearby, with local cuisine. A taxi stand right in front of the hotel proved convenient for my airport transfers.

The room was a bit small, and some of the furniture seemed dated for a four-star hotel..

central location helpful staff wide variety

The location was fantastic. Everything was within a short walk. the staff were friendly and helpful. my double or twin room was clean and well kept (i really liked the decor). i was also happy to find a wide variety of options at breakfast.

i noticed some noise from outside at night, a bit difficult to sleep. perhaps better soundproofing could help.
