extensive breakfast great location room temperature street noise
The breakfast selection was quite extensive. I particularly enjoyed the variety of fresh fruit and juices available. The location was also great. It was very easy to walk to many attractions and public transport was close.
I found the room to be a bit too warm. The air conditioning seemed to have some restrictions. There was also some street noise at night, difficult to sleep without earplugs.
