My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were very comfortable and clean until the last night, allowing me to sleep with the window open peacefully. The service was excellent overall, with some small hiccups. The location was perfect, within walking distance of downtown. However, the dining experience could have been better as the food tended to run out early.

The hotel had both positives and negatives. The rooms were very small, even for two people, making it hard to move around, but they were clean and it was nice to have a bathtub. The service was prompt and accommodating, especially considering the cold weather. The location was convenient, being close to the city center without the noise. The dining experience had its ups and downs with great variety but limited availability. Overall, the hotel offered a mix of good and not so good aspects.

The hotel has well-equipped rooms with large desks, couches, and chairs, providing many facilities. Although the single bed may not be suitable for two people as described, the location is convenient for frequent in-and-out trips. The service is attentive, going the extra mile for perfection, but some incidents like monitoring guests' toaster use were off-putting. The central location offers easy access to desired areas in a quiet yet well-connected neighborhood. The dining experience, while high quality with a nice food variety, had some weaknesses like being meat-heavy and potential chef absence.
