Central Stay with Excellent Shower Pressure!
accessible location excellent shower good value
I found the location really accessible, made getting around super easy. The shower pressure was excellent. the water temperature adjusted perfectly. The room had a good size, it was definitely worth the price I paid.
Hallways were a bit untidy with housekeeping carts sometimes left out.

Betty's Burgers is right next door, that is very convenient. There are many fast food choices close by, and I saw some healthy options too. I really liked the ease of grabbing a quick bite.

The hotel is near many shops, restaurants, train station and tram stops. Access to sporting arenas is short, great for catching a game. Walking to the aquarium is definitely doable from here.

central location helpful staff damp smell thin walls
the location was central, near the train station. the staff were also quite friendly and helpful during check-in , and they assisted with directions. it was easy to get around the area because of this.
the room i stayed in had a peculiar smell, like dampness , and i found that a bit bothersome. also , the walls seemed thin , as i could hear noises from adjacent rooms , and it was disruptive at times.
