the location was acceptable, near public transport.
The room reeked. there was a strong sewage odor , made sleeping difficult. I had to keep the bathroom door closed constantly. also, the walls are thin. Noise from neighboring rooms and the hallway made it hard to relax. i'm not sure what i was expecting.

Wonderful Stay, Excellent Location and Friendly Staff

convenient locationfriendly staffearly checkgreat breakfast
I have stayed here now. The location is super convenient for exploring. Everything is within walking distance, just five minutes from main attractions (this saves time). The staff is super friendly and accommodating, especially the reception team. They checked me in early and were genuinely helpful with directions. The breakfast was good, with many tasty options to choose from.
The bathroom sink handle was a little dirty. The sheets were pretty clean otherwise. A few hairs were here and there.
Rooms
9/10
The rooms were nice and clean, providing comfort. The beds had fresh linens. The space included a modern shower with strong water pressure, which helped after a long day.
Service
10/10
The staff was polite and helpful throughout my visit. They provided prompt assistance with luggage storage and also offered useful local tips. The front desk was staffed 24/7, so I knew someone was always available.
