Excellent Stay in the City Center

larger roombreakfast varietyconvenient locationhelpful staff members
I appreciated the upgrade to a larger room upon arrival, it gave me additional space to relax. The breakfast selection had a lot of variety , and i found it to be great. The location was really convenient , since everything i wanted to see was within walking distance. The staff members were friendly and helpful throughout my stay .
The restaurant service was slow , especially when waiting for dishes and receiving everything at once.
