Central Stay with Great Amenities

ideal location convenient check-in complimentary beverages bag storage
The location was ideal, a short walk to many attractions. I found the self check-in process very convenient upon arrival. The shared coffee machine provided complimentary beverages and I enjoyed it. Bag storage was available after checkout, quite helpful.
The sink made loud noises anytime anyone used it which was slightly disruptive.
Dining
9/10
There was a coffee machine that provides several coffee options including cappuccino and hot chocolate. It operated free of charge. Several tables gave guests space to sit and enjoy a drink, or perhaps plan the day.
Facilities

The hotel had multiple shared bathrooms that prevented any waiting. The bathrooms and rooms were very clean. A common room provided a relaxed space to unwind and socialize with other people.

Adequate Location, Several Issues

missing elevator unavailable staff
The hotel's location was central, with access to locations.
The lack of an elevator was an issue as my room was on the third floor. Carrying luggage up the stairs was difficult. I found no tissues in the room. there was no staff available to ask for extra pillows.
