Acceptable Stay with Noticeable Issues

convenient locationdirty roomnon-functional heating
The location near the Metro was convenient. The staff were friendly.
The room was not clean at all, dust everywhere. The bed head panel was like a health hazard. Stains covered the bed linen. It was disgusting. The bathroom smelled terribly. It was way too cold in the room. The heating system didn't work.

Excellent Location and Friendly Staff

quick accessspacious roomfree coffeeconvenient location
The location offered quick access to both the city center and the airport by Metro 14. The room I occupied was quite spacious. Free coffee, tea, and fresh water were available at reception around the clock. I found this particularly convenient after long days.
I noticed the room could have been a bit cleaner upon arrival.
