Room was perfect for two people on the go. Floor in the bathroom was heated! Staff was always friendly and greeted you when you came in and out. Breakfast was convenient and delicious. Atmosphere overall was fantastic. Location to everything was excellent, nothing we went to was further than a half hour walk from our hotel. It was right in the center of the tourist part of the city which was great for us!
