impersonal breakfast uncomfortable bed
the breakfast felt quite impersonal. ordering from a sheet and having it left outside the door lacked a certain warmth. the bed really wasn't comfortable , i might as well have been sleeping on the sidewalk. it was quite disappointing overall to not have better amenities.

balanced stay
staff explanation security measure computer availability paper bag warm milk thin wall
the staff explained everything very well. i found the security measures reassuring. it reminded me of a priority here. the hotel's location was good, and i appreciated the sitting room. a computer and printer were available to use.
the breakfast was delivered in a paper bag. i found the milk and yogurt in the bag were warm. i was unable to consume the cereal in the morning. the thin walls were a problem. i could hear snoring from neighboring rooms all night.

okay stay, some minor issues
good location spacious room comfortable bed pre-packed breakfast no lift dated decor
The location was good for what i needed. Not too far from the places i visited. the room was spacious enough, i could move around easily. the bed was quite comfortable and i slept well each night.
The breakfast was a pre-packed bag left outside the door. Not very appealing to me. there was no lift, and carrying my luggage to the room was difficult. the room decor seemed a bit dated. It could use some updating.
