Unless the hotel was full, it would have been great to be assigned a room that is not right next to construction work.

Overall, the stay was okay. Check-in was easy and straightforward. Based on the positive reviews, my expectations may have been a bit higher. Breakfast opened later than expected, and the coffee the next morning seemed to be from the night before. The building is quite old, which shows in some areas. We also asked to switch rooms due to the room being very close to the street, but the front desk staff was not very accommodating and came across as unkind. With friendlier service and a few improvements, the experience could be better.
