central locationhot beverageself servicekey box
The location is super. The lounge offers free hot beverages. Self-service check-in and check-out make things easy. I find a coffee machine available in the lounge area. i appreciate secure key boxes for easy town access. The room is super clean and has all the things I needed for my stay. I enjoy the walk in shower.
My room is a little small. The view of the rooftop wasn't really up to snuff, with some mucky water. I see a half eaten dead bird.

Acceptable Location. Disappointing Breakfast Arrangement

good locationleaky shower headwet room setup
The location was good, very close to restaurants.
I found out on the day of travel that no breakfast would be available. The shower head leaked quite a bit, and the wet room setup caused water to flood the bathroom floor.
