This hotel is in a convenient location, close to museums, central market, grocery stores and more. Included breakfast in restaurant in hotel was very good. For us, the only significant downside was our room was very small for two people with two pieces of luggage, backpacks, etc. and there was no window.

The property was clean and the staff were kind and helpful. However there was no parking. We had to park 5 blocks away. It was noisy. At 6am you could hear all the noises from the kitchen. I wasn’t able to get much sleep.
