organized area helpful staff hot days

I was very happy with the pool area. It felt very organized! The hotel personnel were both friendly and ready to help. It really aided in cooling us down given the hot days we were having!

The elevator felt somewhat slow, and it seemed to stop on every floor. Apply, twice. -. That got old quickly.

metro station diverse options helpful staff

The metro station is close by (it is only 2 minutes away). This made getting around the city simple. The provided breakfast had diverse options. The staff were generally helpful and friendly.

The air conditioning in the room was old. It really did not cool the room to the temperature required.

generous space breakfast options public transportation old furnishing insufficient soundproofing small television

The room was large with generous space. The breakfast offered many options. The location is good due to the proximity to public transportation (I used the metro frequently).

The furnishings seemed a bit old. I found the soundproofing insufficient. The television was also quite small (I would have preferred a larger screen).
