"The room was great, for what little time we spent in it, it was a really cozy place. The bed was huge, and really comfortable, I loved how much light the place got as well, with the windows. We were slightly off put by the pictures of the place with how incredibly beige the place looked, but I can assure you it looks way better in person lol. The location is great as well, I've never been to a city this walkable, so I'm glad we picked somewhere right in the middle of it, almost every direction...
