The hotel boasts a fantastic location right in the city center, making it easy to explore nearby shops and attractions. The rooms were spacious and modern, but they could use a little more attention to detail in cleanliness. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. On the downside, dining was not included in the price, and the breakfast options were somewhat limited, leaving a little to be desired.
