mediocre stay, some issues noticed

convenient locationstreet noiseoutdated bathroom

the location was definitely convenient. it was easy to reach, and i felt secure. there were several good restaurants in close proximity.

The room was far from soundproofed. I could clearly hear noise from the street even with the windows closed. the bathroom did not match the photos at all. it felt outdated, with a shower curtain i did not expect in a 4-star hotel. the receptionist at check-in was not especially helpful.

The hotel location is very central. It allowed easy exploration of the area on foot. Breakfast offered many fresh selections (the fruit was great). Staff helped me find a good restaurant.

The temporary air conditioning unit in my room was quite loud. It struggled to cool the room effectively.
