the room was very clean. i had a fridge in my room, this was so handy for keeping drinks cold. the staff were so friendly and always ready to help. i found the hotel to be in a great location with easy access to everything i wanted to see.
I found the elevators to be a little slow. It sometimes took a while to get to my floor.

acceptable but with issues

broken shower door water temperature
the location was convenient as it was less than 5 minutes from a metro station.
the room i booked did not meet expectations at this price point (about 500€ for 3 nights). the shower door was partially broken. it was difficult to regulate the water temperature, with sudden bursts of hot and cold water.
