Adequate City Stay

helpful staffcentral locationlimited storagestreet noise
The location is central. It allowed easy access to main attractions. The staff were helpful with directions and information regarding public transport. Breakfast offered sufficient variety. The room was well kept.
The room I was assigned was rather small. This limited storage options. Street noise was noticeable in the evenings and interrupted sleep. I found the ventilation insufficient. It was not very comfortable.

my stay had a couple of hiccups. the room was a bit of a squeeze, and i found myself wishing for more space. also, the breakfast buffet, (while adequate), didn't exactly scream variety or excitement. i was hoping for a bit more to kickstart my day. it just felt a little underwhelming considering the price i paid.
