A nice urban escape

convenient accesscute attitudecomfortable accommodationsfirm pillow
The proximity to the metro station greatly eased travel throughout the city, a definite advantage. The staff seemed courteous and attentive. Their cute attitude greatly improved the experience. The accommodations provided were comfortable, providing restful nights..
I found the pillow a bit too firm for my liking. While not a major issue, a softer option would have been a welcome addition.
