charming stay, was great!
warm welcome helpful staff fresh breakfast convenient location
the staff greeted me warmly at reception, offering a welcome drink and explaining all the hotel features. they assisted me with parking! it was a real bonus! the room had everything i needed. i found a good variety of fresh items at breakfast, too. the location allows walking to main attractions, with the metro only a five-minute walk away.
The elevators felt a bit old. I waited a few minutes, forgetting to open the doors myself.

effective air conditioning clean rooms
The hotel offered a convenient location. It was just a short walk to central bars and restaurants. The air conditioning was very effective. I stayed cool and comfortable during my entire visit. The rooms were also clean! I appreciate that.
The elevators were a bit slow during peak times. It caused a minor delay. I didn't like it.

The location was acceptable. Some museums were within walking distance.
the noise was a real issue at night (i suspect they skimped on soundproofing). it made sleeping quite difficult.
