    Location was perfect, right next to the first cable car station. The room was spacious and clean, albeit a bit old fashioned. The staff was super friendly and kind.

    Great location. Friendly staff. I was surprise that key gas to be left in a board in exchange for the building key, where any one can have access to the room key after that. I suppose is safe but I had never experienced that key system before.
