Liked: Cleanliness
My room was clean, cozy and close lots of shops and restaurants. I could never get the wifi to work and the tv service wasnt working in my room. I was only there for one night so not a big issue fir me.

Disliked: Staff & service
The location was very convenient. The self check in and out process was super easy. But for a property this expensive, the room was very small and there was no reception or staff around. Not worth the cost in my opinion.

Great location and property. It is excellent value for the time of year and is close to everything. The shower wasn't the best, but overall, I was very happy with the property.
