Central Location and Great Breakfast

I found the room spacious and very clean. Breakfast had many organic options and was really amazing. The location is practical to get everywhere, with the subway station just a short walk away. The hotel provided a relaxing retreat after exploring the city.

I thought the room was a bit warm. The air conditioning seemed inefficient.

Acceptable Location, but Disappointing Room

broken air conditioning old tv

The location was good with easy access.

The air conditioning did not work. It was a hot day, so this made the room very uncomfortable. The TV was old and did not allow me to connect to Netflix. I found this annoying.

A Decent Hotel Stay

convenient location relaxing bar average cleaning old equipment

Our location was convenient. It was within walking distance of shops and tourist attractions. The tea and coffee and snack shop on the ground floor was appreciated. The bar was also nice for a relaxing drink.

The cleaning policy requires a well-cleaned room, but the cleaning felt average. Since it is only cleaned on request, I expect a thorough job. The gym equipment seems old and needs an upgrade. There were missing weights. The room also needed cleaning, surprising because the gym was always busy.
