Very cute hotel with nice rooms and beds and in a great location. You can walk anywhere in a short time. Our first night we had some noise issues, cause room was close to elevators. We talked to receptionist next morning and we could move into another room with no noise interruption. That was excellent service. I recommend this hotel.
