A Satisfactory Experience

metro stationquick accessvery cleanroomhelpful stafffriendly staffvery smallroombig pillowsbreakfast standards
The location provides quick access to a metro station. I could walk there in under five minutes. The room was very clean. The staff members were friendly and helpful. They answered all my questions.
The room felt very small. The pillows were too big for my preference. I prefer flatter pillows. There was no choice available. Breakfast did not meet expectations.
