The location were indeed convenient. The staff was really helpful and friendly, I liked this. The breakfast was delicious and have a good variety of choices, I found it really charming.

The room felt small, specially with luggage. There was noise at night because the street has a lot of movement. It was kinda annoying trying to sleep with noise every time.
