I would not stay there again.
Pros:

The location is the main reason I stayed there. Also, I’ve stayed there in the past and had a good experience. Not sure I’ll be staying there again.

Cons:

I did not like how small the room was and how it looked like it needed renovation. The bath towels were super old. Also, the breakfast service is super slow and crowded.
