Excellent Central Stay

convenient locationhelpful staffeffective air conditioningfire alarm

The hotel enjoys a very convenient location. I found the staff to be helpful and kind. The air conditioning in the room functioned effectively. The room offered good value for the cost.

The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night. Guests had to wait outside until the fire department inspected the building. It took a considerable amount of time to resolve, and it disrupted sleep significantly.

The location has main tourist attractions nearby. I saw that the hotel was very clean and well-kept. The staff proved friendly and I saw they were accommodating. They moved me to a room with a nice balcony.

The room felt a bit small. It made it a struggle for two people in such a small space. I think the rooms could be bigger for the price.
