More room for improvement. Keep striving to improve 💪 ✨️
Pros:

The location itself was excellent. Food is within walking distance, and public transportation is easily accessible.

Cons:

Well, I believe that if the hotel staff could provide up to date information about "how to get to places via free bus services and paid busses" that would be awesome because local tourists like me, may not want to drive. Luckily, there is hotel parking.
Thank you.
