The hotel was very convenient to all the shops bars and restaurants. Our room was obviously in the oldest part of the building or maybe not the updated part, very dark ,very little lighting the shower had old soap scum build up on the door and in general didn't feel very clean. For the price you pay a night everything should be exceptional not just for the convenience.
