great location rooftop restaurant helpful staff noisy room bad isolation poor breakfast

The location was excellent! it was close to everything i wanted to see. the rooftop restaurant had amazing views i watched the sunset from there. the staff provided a takeaway breakfast when i had an early flight. It was very thoughtful.

my room was next to the street, it was very noisy. car alarms woke me up each night, it wasn't fun. the windows did not block the sound well, applying, twice.

Satisfactory Stay with Some Drawbacks

standard room better room top floor fantastic view numerous restaurants safe area unsafe neighborhood safe area breakfast quality poor breakfast difficult parking parking issue

I received a better room than initially booked. The room had a higher standard. A fantastic view from the top floor was available. The location is close to a district with many restaurants.

The neighborhood felt unsafe at night. The breakfast quality was poor. I noticed there was no espresso machine. Parking around the hotel was difficult.

small bathroom poor soundproofing

The room was smaller than i expected and felt quite outdated. the bathroom was especially cramped. It was hard to move around. i could also hear a lot of noise from both the hallway and the street outside. it really affected my sleep. I wish the soundproofing was better.
