a decent stay
great location nespresso machine clean room poor service instant coffee loose rail
i found the location great. it was easy to get around the city on foot. i also liked that my room had a nespresso coffee machine. it was definitely a plus. the room was kept clean every day too.
the bar service could be better. i ordered a decaf coffee and it was instant. it came from a sachet and tasted far too strong! also, the towel rail in my room was falling off the wall. that was not good.
