the location worked out great. i could easily walk to many places from the hotel. the breakfast had enough options to start the day. the rooftop had some pretty nice views of the area.
the bathroom felt small. it was hard to move around without bumping into something. also, the air conditioning didn't get very cold and i have asked for a room change, but got denied. the room had some noise from the street below.

this location near the metro was quite charming. the rooftop bar had excellent views. i enjoyed the fresh food choices. the staff quickly responded to replace my controller battery. i liked the friendly smiles from the whole staff.
