i found the staff to be quite attentive, always ready to help with a smile. the location is super convenient, a very short walk from the station (it was great for exploring!). the room was very clean and well-designed.

i noticed the room size was a bit smaller, and it was a little tight for luggage storage. perhaps some better organization of space could improve this.

the location was special, offering subway access directly to the hotel. i found it convenient that the staff was consistently helpful. the presence of bath salts available in the lobby added a tender touch to the experience. the provision of clean towels and water bottles daily was thoughtful.

The check-out time at 11 am felt a little earlier than i am accustomed to. It required a small adjustment to my morning routine.

the rooms are new and include a massage chair. i found a strange policy that they do not make up your room after 1:30 pm. i needed to leave after 1:30 pm so i did not have my room serviced for the day.

The location was convenient because it was close to the main train station.

I found the room too small. One side of the bed pressed against the wall and it was hard to get out of bed. I had hardly any room for my luggage. The breakfast service was very poor and the food tasted stale.
