“In my opinion, what stands out here is the unbeatable downtown location, making it incredibly easy to get around via public transport and explore the city's main attractions. The building is secure, and some rooms offer great views; still, light sleepers might want to pack earplugs, but I believe the access to everything is worth it.”
