My stay included five nights. I found the gym facilities valuable. The room size and the lounge created an amazing atmosphere for work. I safety was good. The staff were lovely .
The entrance isn't directly on the street, so getting my suitcase up the stairs was a little difficult. I couldn't locate it. This caused some initial inconvenience.
