I absolutely loved the hotel's central location, making it incredibly easy to explore local bars and restaurants. The cleanliness was impressive, with tidy rooms and attentive staff ensuring everything was well-kept. the complimentary breakfast options, like toast and hot drinks, exceeded my expectations for a room-only stay. Parking was a breeze, given the included pass for a nearby lot, which is a rare find in this city.
