Central Location and Helpful Staff

friendly staff excellent location varied breakfast
The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. They greeted us warmly each time we entered or exited the building. The hotel location is excellent, close to many attractions and within walking distance of the tram stop. The breakfast had a lot of variety and tasted great too..
Water came out of the shower onto the floor after each shower. The noise cancellation could have been better.
