The staff was friendly, I'll give them that. the location is pretty central. You can't really get lost.
My 'Large Double Room' turned out to be less 'large' and more 'cozy', or cramped, really. The ceilings were so low, I reminded me of I was in a hobbit hole.

the location was amazing. i found the rooms to be very clean with lovely decor. the staff were friendly and efficient. they helped with directions and enhanced my stay..
i was given a small double room though i paid extra for a large one. the receptionist explained that the hotel has rooms of different sizes. even after i explained that i had been downgraded, she never apologised and moved me to another room. the floor was uneven, so it seemed like i was being punished for asking for the room i had booked.
