central location helpful staff rooftop area small bathroom street noise no elevator

the location was excellent, right in the heart of everything (i really loved being so close to all the action). the staff were very helpful with directions and recommendations. i had a cute balcony, and there was also a shared rooftop area with nice views.

the bathroom was quite small. the noise from the street was noticeable. i also missed having a lift (climbing stairs with luggage isn't my favorite thing).
