Excellent location
Pros:

It's directly across from the railroad station, and not far from the big museum. Since I can't eat spicy foods (after radiation for tongue-base cancer), they made an effort to accommodate me and, for example, to find curd for me.

Pros:

When I show up at front desk for check in, they said there is no reservation for me. I showed them email received from Expedia with the details of payment I made at the time of reservation. It didn't help. They even didn't know about Expedia reservation. I had to find room at another hotel.
