Adequate Hotel with Minor Issues

convenient locationcomfortable roomsticky sideboardtea ring

The location is really convenient. Many attractions are within a comfortable walking distance. The metro station was also close. The room I got, after swapping the initial one, was great. I enjoyed my stay in it.

The room was not very clean. The sideboards had a sticky residue on them. They also had several ring marks from tea. I found this disappointing, as cleanliness is important.
