Good Central Stay

I found a large room with two narrow balconies at the hotel corner. Opening both doors provided a great breeze. There was a bath that I used. The location allowed easy walking everywhere because of a pedestrian mall.
The staff at the front desk lacked name tags. A tall guy seemed rude during my check-in. I noticed similar complaints about the staff. It appears management accepts this bad behavior.

The hotel location is GREAT!!! It sits right in the middle of the walking street, surrounded by shops. The room features an elegant style I love. Staff members are helpful. They changed my aunt's room to one with easy access from the lift after finding she hurt her knees. She could not walk up the stairs.
The hotel lacks shampoo and conditioner. There was only very dilute shower gel.
