a decent city stay

helpful staff daily towels pastry selection cramped room noisy air conditioning limited storage

the staff were very helpful with directions. the room was clean, with fresh towels daily. breakfast had a good selection of pastries (i especially enjoyed the croissants).

The room size was quite small. I found it a bit cramped. the air conditioning unit was somewhat noisy (it made it hard to sleep). there wasn't much storage space for luggage.

great location helpful staff friendly staff small room minimal airflow uncomfortable bed

the location is great. it is just a five minutes walk from temple underground station. the staff were very helpful and friendly. i am grateful for the easy access to transportation.

the room was very small, as to be expected. the airflow was minimal. i feel a room with a window would be better for future visits. the bed wasn't very comfortable to me.
