Martin

Good location in the tourist zone. Staff very friendly and helpful. But the room had just one window that looked out into a corridor, the light in the room was way too bright while the light in the bathroom was too dim. Hot water was only available intermittently and the Wifi was very slow in the morning and then again in the evening.

The hotel was good, once you figured out how to get the hot water to work in the shower, i chose this area because i lived in this area.
