City center location and in a very quiet street but only two blacks away from the busy city center! The hotel is a bit old in terms of physical condition, no drinking cup in the room, one of the room refrigerator is too noisy. But rhe staff was very friendly and professional at check in as well as provide volet parking which is essential for us!

The bedding needs to be majorly upgraded. Need new linens better pillows a stylish comfortable coverlet and better mattress or mattered pad. It was a very uncomfortable sleep for a quite high priced hotel. Also the shower is terrible with mould and rust and it leaks. Breakfast and location are lovely
