"A great stay. My only advice is ce to potential guests, is that the nearest subway is a 20 minute walk away. Th walk felt safe, even in the evening, however after a busy day out and about, it felt like a very long walk back to the hotel. However, taxis are extremely easy to find and were also cheap, so we used them more than the sun way in the evening."
