Pros:

Great location near lots of eateries and quiet despite the central location. I stay Covid safe, so being able to eat my breakfast on the sheltered balcony with a bit of fresh air was really handy, and staff were kind enough to turn on heaters for me.

Cons:

All pillows were very thick slabs. No frills at all as far as toiletries.
