The location proved amazing. It gave perfect access to water transportation. The staff seemed friendly. The check-in process felt smooth and hassle-free.
The room was very noisy during the night. I could hear doors slamming, and this happened both nights. The bed was supposed to be a double. It was just two singles pushed together.
