The location is good, close to the train station and not far from the main points of interest. The staff is great. Breakfast was ok, although limited. The property condition was under our expectations. The room that we were assigned (for three people) was ok, but the washroom was tiny and the distribution was very inconvenient. The room did not have a place to connect the Europe to North America plug adaptor, except for one in the washroom where there was zero space to put the phones, etc. Overall not a good value for money and way under our expectations.

Very small one room space, narrow bathroom. Considering how busy the area is it was ok for one night stay for a family of five. Staff was kind to keep our luggage when we arrived about 2 hours earlier than the check in time. Breakfast fast was good, nothing fancy though.
