Acceptable stay with noted issues
convenient locationhard mattressthin walls
The hotel is near the station, making it easy to travel around.
The mattress felt very hard. It was almost like sleeping directly on a box spring. the thin walls meant I could hear a lot of street noise throughout the night. These issues made it difficult to sleep soundly.

convenient locationpublic transporthelpful staffsmall bathroomshower doorstreet noise
The location proved convenient for accessing public transportation. The proximity to the metro station made getting around easy. Staff members were very helpful when I needed to make urgent phone calls. The room included air conditioning, a welcome relief.
The bathroom felt very small. The shower lacked a proper door. This caused water to spill onto the floor. There was noise from the street and it was quite noticeable. I found the noise levels challenging.

I encountered some issues . The air conditioning unit leaked and that created a puddle. The television was quite small. The soundproofing was inadequate. I could clearly hear noises from other rooms (it was a bit disturbing).
