adequate stay, some small issues

lovely breakfast inclusive breakfast helpful staff friendly staff convenient location great location small room tiny room noisy street loud street old tv slow tv

the breakfast included was quite good. the staff were friendly and helpful . the location near the metro was a plus. there also was a rooftop terrace available.

the rooms were rather small, and i found the bed particularly so for two people. the street was quite noisy, it was loud until midnight. the tv in the room seems old and it responded slowly.

Awesome Stay, Central Location!

friendly staff delicious breakfast fun location rooftop terrace

The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious, I loved it! The location is quite fun, too. There is a great rooftop terrace available with a view of the city.

The room was tiny, I must say. It was still a fair price for the city though.
