The hotel is ideally placed, very close to the city center yet far enough away from the noise, adjacent to large shopping centers and within walking distance of the city center. The rooms are spacious and accommodating for kids with allergies, but the Wi-Fi has an additional charge. The staff are extra friendly and helpful. The location is superb, providing easy access to the city's main attractions and shopping areas. The dining options are delightful with freshly baked cookies adding a nice touch. However, the cost for some facilities may add up quickly.
