I found the location very convenient. It had easy access to public transport. The included breakfast had a good selection. I was also happy to find helpful staff.
The soundproofing was not very good. I could hear street noise clearly. The air conditioning was weak. I also found the room a little small.

Underwhelming Experience

alright locationslow check-insmall room
The location seemed alright.
The check-in was slower than a snail on a treacle, and the front desk staff acted as if smiling caused physical pain. The room, a so called 'Design Room', was smaller than my closet back home and about as stylish. The noise from the street made it sound like I was camping next to a highway and I found no slippers in the bathroom.
