“What this place might lack in lavishness, it more than compensates for with immaculate spaces and a staff eager to assist. Its position is a strategic win, placing you near the art museums and the main train station; plus, GatoGato restaurant is a treasure just steps away. I think it's a smart choice for travelers who prioritize location, cleanliness, and reliable service without the fuss.”
