Review Score: 4

Summary: The hotel is in a safe neighborhood and walking distance in to city center (and the attractions). The breakfast was good and cooked to order with good choice. The room we had was next to the main entrance and beside the reception. You could hear everyone coming and going, everyone talking at the reception (including the receptionist on her phone at midnight). The room was on the small size, and in need of updating.
