The location is ideal, being close to many attractions, but I found the dining options to be a bit limited for my taste. Overall, it's a solid choice for the price, but I wish there were more diverse breakfast selections.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was comfortable and clean, which made for a nice retreat after a day of exploring. The service was adequate, but I did experience a bit of a wait during check-in. The location is great, just a short walk from key tourist attractions, although navigating the nearby streets was sometimes a challenge. The dining options were decent, but I expected a bit more variety, especially for breakfast. The facilities were satisfactory, but there's definitely room for improvement.
