The location was convenient. Public transportation was easily accessible. The digital room key system worked, once I got the hang of it. Free luggage storage was available.

The mini fridge did not cool properly. I found the bed and pillows uncomfortable. The room had a noticeable unpleasant smell each time I entered.
