This property is located very conveniently to all of the major attractions. You could walk down to the main areas by the River or take a Uber/Bolt. The hotel rooms are very spacious and it is located in a quiet residential area. Not much to do in the area. Airport is about 20-25 minutes away. Would stay here again
