    The beds were really comfortable and the room was spacious. The air conditioning and fan worked well, keeping the room cool. The staff were friendly and helpful and provided us with towels and lockers. The common areas were clean and well-maintained. The kitchen was a great bonus, allowing us to cook our own meals. The location was convenient, with easy access to local restaurants and supermarkets. The rooftop terrace was a nice place to relax and meet other guests.

    The WiFi on the top floor was not reliable and the hot water in the shower was not consistent. Some noise from other guests checking out early in the morning could be heard due to thin doors and walls.

    The room had a free upgrade and was clean. The breakfast was delicious and the coffee was great. The staff were helpful with train schedules and guided us to a nearby restaurant. They even made sandwiches for our early departure.

    The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful, providing great service and offering valuable advice on exploring the city. They were quick to assist with any requests, such as arranging transportation and providing recommendations for local attractions and dining options. the hotel's central location was a major advantage, making it easy to reach various places in the city and allowing for convenient sightseeing. the rooms were cozy, with small balconies that provided a nice place to relax after a busy day of exploring.

    Some areas of the hotel, like the shared bathroom and kitchen, were not always kept clean, which was a bit disappointing. It would have been better if these areas were maintained more regularly to ensure a comfortable stay.

    The hotel offered excellent security and cleanliness. The staff was very friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant experience. The location was in a posh area, with easy access to restaurants and a supermarket. The rooms had comfortable beds, reliable air conditioning, and a useful fridge for guests. it was a pleasant place to stay during my Christmas holiday.

    There were a few negative aspects. The rooms were quite small, with limited space for luggage.
