solid stay close to embassies

metro stationrelaxing coffee shopsquick ridegood location
the location suited my plans well i walked to the metro station nearby the walk took less than ten minutes the metro ride to the city center was quick i found several coffee shops within five minutes of the hotel they were good.
the air conditioning in my room did struggle a bit to keep the room consistently cool especially during the warmer afternoons it worked but could have been more effective. the hotel seemed like it could do with a modern refresh.

The front desk staff were friendly. they possessed considerable knowledge about the surrounding area and public transportation options. they ensured we were well taken care of. the location is great. I felt safe at any time of day.
the gym was subpar. it was filled with unused mattresses and had a noticeable cigarette odor. the equipment was limited to a few small weights. the massage room also had too many mattresses.
