The hotel offers spacious rooms with enough modern amenities while maintaining a genuine feel. Only minimal daylight enters the rooms, which are small but adequate. The service was really nice and helpful, pointing out famous tourist spots and offering extra perks like free breakfast. The location is superb, allowing quick walks to major landmarks. The dining experience, though simple, was very good and abundant.

Upon my arrival, the room with a small folding bed felt cramped and had a smell of cigarettes, however, it was ultimately clean and very large. The service, despite the language barrier, was friendly and helpful, with the staff offering city tips and a good breakfast. The location was great for sightseeing on foot, and while the dining had quality produce, it lacked variety. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel tries to paint a more glamorous picture in their photos of the rooms than they actually are. They are very basic, dark, and lack proper lighting. The space is also cramped with minimal room to open luggage. However, the location is bustling and convenient for exploration.
