The location is very convenient, directly above the subway entrance. this made getting around very easy. the staff was helpful. They quickly offered a new room when the first one had a bit of noise. the breakfast was excellent and included many options. i was able to leave bags in the luggage room before check-in.
the gym is small, and the equipment appears quite old.

breakfast selection sitting area bar atmosphere poor soundproofing ineffective temperature ventilation system
The breakfast offered a great selection at convenient times. Comfortable sitting areas are available around the lobby. I found the atmosphere in the bar and on the terrace quite nice during the evenings.
The soundproofing was not adequate. I could clearly hear doors slamming and hallway conversations throughout the night. The temperature control in the room seemed ineffective and the ventilation system was noisy. I found it hard to relax properly.

Breakfast was very good with a nice selection of foods.
The room I booked online did not match what I received. I reserved a standard queen room, yet the room was quite small. It felt more like a single. The bathroom was especially cramped.
