The only challenge is the Loading/Offloading Area when arriving and departing It is often full and you will hold up traffic if you choose to stop. Otherwise a pleasant accommodation and close to the city centre

Super loud
This is a beautiful hotel with comfortable beds and lots of room. But the room, at least mine, was located directly above a nightclub. It was unbearably loud until nearly 3 am. Absolutely impossible to sleep. Now, I understand this noise isn’t the hotel’s fault, but it is their fault not to notify guests of the situation prior to booking. They should also keep some ear plugs on hand to give to guests.

Liked: Cleanliness
The building is very old and as such requires constant maintenance. This meant scaffolding by my room's windows and noisy work during my stay. The receptionists are not quite friendly, had to ask multiple times about in-room Internet being out-of-order.
