Excellent Hotel Experience

helpful staffconvenient locationstreet noise
The staff were kind. The room was serviced daily. That was wonderful! The location is convenient. It is close to shops, restaurants, and the hop-on-hop-off bus. I had easy access to everything I needed.
The street noise was somewhat distracting. The noise from the drains after showering was also odd. It sounded like someone used the bathroom for a long time. An update would be useful!

i was thrilled by the excellent location , right in the arab quarter ! so many restaurants and shops are just steps away. the room itself was spacious , and i was so happy about it. i especially liked the big windows that let in so much light.
my room was quite noisy , as it faced a busy street , and this was annoying. the bathroom felt a bit cramped , and i wished there was more counter space. also , the lighting in the room wasn't great .
