i found the location to be really top. it was easy to reach the sites i wanted to visit. the room had a safe that was very useful and had enough space for a tablet.
i realized it was hard to see where one could be fitted. i found a venetian smell present in one breakfast room and on the stairs. it was not pleasant.
