The staff was very nice and friendly. The room was ok for what we needed. There was however mold in the shower, the bed was not comfortable and the “balcony” overlooked a nasty smelly area. It was next to the train station so nice that we didn’t have to go far. If I had not of been with my husband I would not have stayed in this area. It’s very very busy and not a super safe area. My fault I guess for booking in the area.

Before you back ask if the construction noise is completed. The room was too small to open a small suitcase and construction on the building next door starts at 7:30 am. So loud! Not worth the money at all. Stay elsewhere.

The room was clean and nice with a cold AC. We got it because it was near the train station. They allowed us to check in early which was great, since it was cleaned and available. Which doesn’t always happen in other hotels even if they are clean and available.
