the staff was nice. i found the room very clean. public washrooms were also well maintained. the building had historical significance which i appreciated. the atmosphere was amazing and the hotel was well kept.
the location was far from main attractions. it required more travel time to reach the city center. it was inconvenient, especially after a long day of sightseeing. public transportation was necessary for commuting.

the hotel is situated slightly away from the main tourist areas , however, it was still accessible. the metro station is close to the hotel, only a short walk. using public transportation made it easy to reach shopping, restaurants and tourist attractions.
