Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
convenient locationunavailable milkshared bathroom
The location was convenient, a short walk to the metro station.
I was disappointed to find there was no actual milk provided in the room, only a creamer (it didn't work for me). The radiator stayed on all night despite adjusting the dial, and it made the room uncomfortably hot. I didn't like it.

The receptionist Joseph was helpful and friendly. He provided quick assistance and directions. The location is near an underground station and central areas. It was convenient for getting around. I appreciated the room size, it had enough space for luggage and movement.
The street noise at night was a bit loud, disrupting sleep slightly.
