Superb Location and Excellent Service

lively barhelpful staffuseful amenitylow sink
The hotel is steps away from shops and lively bars. The staff greeted me warmly and promptly assisted with check-in. My room included useful amenities! I appreciated the quick resolution of a minor query.
The bathroom sink was a bit too low for comfort. I had to bend over quite a bit to use it properly.
