amazing location walking distance uncomfortable pillows thin blankets

The location was fantastic. It's right in the city. i appreciated that it was within walking distance to shopping areas and most attractions. plus, the train station was close by.

The pillows were just not good. They were so uncomfortable. also, the blankets were too thin for my liking. i noticed a cigarette smell, possibly coming from outside or other rooms. That bothered me a bit.
