Overall, this was a good place to stay. Good location for being able to easily move around the city. Plenty of quality eating establishments within a five minute walk. The breakfast was okay, and good enough to start your day. My only complaint was the WiFi was virtually unusable while we were there (we could get around this obstacle by using our phones).
