The hotel had a grocery store conveniently across the street. I found many shops and restaurants nearby. The staff provided great service at all hours. I also liked the coffee maker in my room.

THE room was just too small.

My room felt quite cramped, it was difficult to fully open my luggage. The bathroom was also very small. I had to maneuver around the hairdryer to use the toilet. The shower drain was slow, and water pooled easily.
