The room was clean and situated in a convenient location. A lot of the historical sites are walking distance. Those that are farther, no problem, the metro is very near and well the rest is being able to fit time in order to do all the activities that you want.

Joe at the front desk was amazing for our check in, we had a terrible experience at an air bnb and needed a room ASAP with early check in and he got us in with no questions asked. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the entire stay was over the top. 10/10 cannot recommend enough.
