Couldn’t have asked for a more ideal place
Pros:

The place was located close to a well stocked supermarket, and many restaurants, pharmacies and laundry services, shops and famous sights, and not far from metro.

Cons:

One elevator was not in service throughout our stay which made it difficult when checking out with luggage. The stairs and slopes also made it a bit challenging as my wife had a bad knee. But Bryan at the reception was exceptional in helping us change room and gave us tips that helped in our trip planning.

Good hotel in perfect area if you are looking for sightseeing. Bonus points for the staff
Pros:

Super friendly and helpful staff! I was visiting with my mother - who has difficulty walking, and since our original room only had a bathtub, we were allowed to change rooms without any problem.

Cons:
