magical stay

warm staffvarious choiceeco choicesmall size
the staff felt so warm. the location is suitable if you enjoy some walking. the breakfast held various choices. eco choices existed in the hotel too. i enjoyed the water machine with both still and sparkling water, it felt great. the location near public transport did help move around.
the room's small size impacted comfort. the bathroom seemed like an outdated hospital bathroom. the window could only open slightly. the absence of air conditioning made the room stuffy those warm days. i had some issues with the lighting. i feel this must be addressed.

The room felt quite small. I noticed a strong musty smell in the bathroom. It seemed ventilation was poor. the noise from the street below kept me awake a few nights. the air conditioning struggled to keep up.
