Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The best parts were the staff and terrace. The pool is closed due to the drought and no one told us about this - it does not even say on their website and we only found out during checkin, which was very disappointing as this was a large reason we decided to stay here. We also got given room 211 which was right above the main road and metro station. The windows were single glazed (it sounded like they were open) and we slept terribly because of this. We mentioned this at reception the next day and got switched to a room which was much quieter and nicer.

The terrace bar didn’t work the whole time we were there. The pool doesn’t work as well. Very limited choices of breakfast. I will not come back, and don’t recommend! The only good thing about the hotel is the location!

The hotel is located next to a metro station with great transport links, and it’s also a walking distance from many of the city’s attractions. The rooms are well-furnished and spacious, and we found the beds very comfortable. The staff is welcoming and friendly, and the reception is 24/7 if you need anything. The only thing to bear in mind is that it’s on a busy road, so at night it’s not the quietest location.

Nice enough, clean, helpful staff. Good that it is possible to open the window for fresh air. Pillows uncomfortable. Some things in the room could use a refresh. The desk in the room was unsuited to business travel. The view from the room of the neighbour's laundry was... Interesting.
