The area was the heart of the city so it’s gonna be noisy. It’s gonna be crowded. It’s gonna be a little dirty but at night the streets got amazingly cleaned. Still felt safe would definitely stay there again.

Good basic place. Helpful staff. Great location if you have stuff in the city center. The 15th floor corridor has a loud phone to call housekeeping staff. It’s annoying and disturbs one’s sleep. The hotel should find a better system to reach their staff that does not disturb its guests.

Depending on the room location (preferably downstairs/ground floor) the room is reasonably confortable. There are however a lot of insects in the room due to short doors. The service overall is impeccable which makes a one night stay great overall.
