quick accesssmall roompoor cleanliness
The hotel location was fine, since it allowed quick access to many places.
I really did not have a good experience. The room I had booked was so small, the bathroom door couldn't open fully because it would hit the bed. the cleanliness wasn't great, and I could see some dirt around.

The hotel provided easy access to multiple metro stations. Cafes and bars were very close. The provided bed was comfortable. I appreciated the full tub after a long day.
The noise was excessive. I could not sleep soundly on several nights. An outdated air conditioning unit from a neighboring room sounded like an engine.
