I found the location convenient, being so close to many shops. the room included slippers and a bamboo toothbrush, a charming touch. the nespresso coffee maker with pods was a welcome amenity..
the streets surrounding the hotel had an unpleasant smell, a bit off-putting. there was also a noticeable smell once i entered my room. i forgot my electricity converter, and it wasn't returned to the reception, a disappointment.
