adequate but not really good

street noise slow breakfast

Initially, the noise from the street was quite disruptive. I had to request a different room. the second room was quieter, but still not entirely soundproof. also, the breakfast choices were limited to only five options, and preparation seemed slow each morning. this made starting the day a bit frustrating.

metro station helpful staff

I appreciated the location. It was near a metro station. Several bus lines are also close. The staff members were sympathetic and helpful. The bathroom in the room suited our family well. It features three separate areas.

Breakfast offered only five options, and preparation took a while.
