Friendly staff Breakfast was great, having 24 hr access to coffee, tea and hot chocolate was a bonus Cons- no elevator so bringing large luggages to 3rd floor up and down - spiral stairs was difficult. I hope staff will offer services to bring your luggages to the room. Nice location and near eateries/attractions
