Good location, not the cleanest place to stay if cleanliness is important to you. But good location, staff are friendly
Pros:

Great location. In the heart of everything.

Cons:

No blankets, even though it gets very cold! The blanket I asked for and Recieved was stained, which is not the end of the world, but not the most comfortable place to sleep.

Pros:

The hotel is in a very good location, close to the main landmarks and attractions. The staff were very friendly and communication with them was excellent. Considering the location, the price is also very good.

Cons:

The room had a small blind window facing a ventilation shaft. However, we had booked the cheapest room and didn’t ask to change it, so I’m sure the other rooms are in better condition.
