Great location- around the corner from shops and restaurants. Close enough to these features but far enough where it's not impacting your stay with crowds and noise. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Room was very clean and com. Staff were great, very friendly and helpful. Rooms have little sound insulation so you do hear people outside but they provide ear plugs for you if it too much.
