i stayed for a brief overnight trip, and this hotel was great. the location was ideal, right in the city center. it was an easy walk to restaurants and shops. the check-in was seamless and quick.
the rooms were very small. rooms had a wardrobe, but others did not have one at all. the air cooling system did not dehumidify. it only dropped the temperature a couple of degrees.
