Really good Amenities and Service
helpful staffmodern televisionample space
The staff were helpful with directions to local attractions. The room contained a modern television with several channels. I found ample space for luggage storage in the closet. It also featured an iron and ironing board.
The stairs to the upper floors were somewhat narrow. This made carrying larger suitcases slightly difficult.

friendly staffstreet noisesingle-glazed window
the staff were friendly, this was acceptable.
The room was quite noisy at night. The street sounds were very disruptive. the single-glazed window did little to block out the noise. I didn't sleep well. ventilation was poor if i closed the window.

the location was acceptable, right in the center of things.
Housekeeping was inconsistent . I found dirty pillowcases upon arrival, which they had to change. the staff weren't sure if they had clean spares, i was quite concerned. also, my room wasn't serviced on the second day, even though i placed the sign on the door.
