convenient stay

helpful staff clean room convenient location
the staff stored our luggage before check-in and put it in our room when it was ready. the room was a decent size and super clean with good amenities. the hotel is close to restaurants, train station, convenience stores, and bus stops (very handy!). i found it a great base for my stay.
the rooms facing the street had noticeable traffic noise. i was offered a different room, and that helped.

wonderful stay

cute staff free luggage storage amazing breakfast excellent location
i found the staff very cute they were helpful throughout my stay i received a welcome drink which was a nice gesture the hotel allowed me to leave my luggage for free. the breakfast was amazing and they accommodated a vegetarian meal the room was a good size which easily fit three beds while still allowing space to move around and store luggage. the location was excellent close to the metro with easy walking distance to many attractions and shops and restaurants were just outside
i noticed the rooms face a busy street so street noise can be heard changing rooms helped reduce the noise i experienced it but others might not
