The only downside to this place is that they ask you to deposit the room key at the reception whenever you go outside. Although they might still have access to the room otherwise, it still creates a privacy concern.

This was too cramped for 3 teens and an adult. No kettle or fridge and we could hear the neighbours all night. Location and staff were fantastic but it is probably more suited to party people rather than families.

Small room, but given the location it was reasonable. The person at the front desk helped carry our suitcases up, and also when we checked out they carried them back down. Evan I think was there for our check in and was extremely welcoming. Gave us a rundown of the city and what is worth seeing. Great hospitality. Overall our stay was good~
