The location is very central. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room and shower room were super clean (which I always appreciate).
My window had a cracked pane of glass. The check in person was not cute in the slightest.

The breakfast was pretty good. I found the staff friendly and helpful. The room was large (a definite plus).
The windows looked rather dirty, with visible mold. I noticed the bathroom looked outdated. Every time the kitchen door opened, there was a loud bang.

Our room faced the street. The noise was quite noticeable, especially early in the morning. I found that the shower had very low water pressure. It made washing my hair difficult. We loved the location. but the noise and water pressure were a bit disappointing.
