great locationfresh towelsthin walls

The location offered easy access to shops and dining. The room included a fridge and coffee setup. It was quite handy. The bed was comfortable, and cleaning happened every other day with fresh towels. I loved the full kitchen. It provided a great option for cooking.

The walls were thin. I could hear people in other rooms. This was an issue for me. The room felt dated overall, and it impacted my sense of peace.
