adequate stay in the city center

excellent location ample storage good size early morning noise pavement noise inadequate shower curtain

the location was excellent. it was very easy to reach many restaurants (plenty within walking distance). the room was a good size. it was super clean with ample storage space.

there was noise outside very early in the morning. tables and chairs were dragged across the pavement. the noise was especially noticeable on weekend nights from outside cafes and bars. the shower curtain did not fully prevent water from splashing onto the floor.
