Good Place to Stay

It's a hotel under construction, lots of dust and tons of art work all over the place, but not hung up. A very kind staff and the breakfast was next level! Good and easy location! Easy access to everything!

Modern hotel and convenient for public transport

I use regular hotels, based on convenient location (work or evenings out). It was my first stay there, owing to my regular hotels being full or too expensive that week, but was very close to the metro and the 71 bus, so that was good. Staff were very friendly, all of the time. Room was quite large, but I would have liked more desk space (very cramped) and additional power sockets. Not good when trying to use a laptop. wi-Fi was excellent. I really appreciated the fridge and kettle (with supplies) in the room, and the free coffee downstairs. The lift was fine, but the stairs where too narrow and sharply curved for me so I only used them once. I am very tempted to stay again, but location means getting out of bed 25 minutes earlier for work, and that is a big ask!

Very good hotel, just needs a bit more.

Overall good experience, reception staff very friendly, beds we soft and nice, temperature control in room. Large room, could use more table space. Missing one bedside table. A bit grimey in the shower, didn't drain for first 2 nights. Staff did quickly remediate. Toilet was a bit to eco which defeated the purpose. Had to flush 10 times to make anything happen...maybe. Didnt refill soap or in room coffee. Location is very good, would stay again.

The reception staffs were nice. There was a confusion about the tag provided in the room. I was looking for Do Not Disturb tag first night, couldn't find one so I left out the one provided on the bed. The tag says, "The best carbon footprint is the one we don't emit. I participate by hanging the door tie on my bedroom door before 8 am." I wasn't able to realize it was supposed to be a "please clean my room" tag until I got disturbed 3 times in the day, and expected to change the towels on the second night but no one came to change. It was a misunderstanding but you could do better to make the door tie more clear. Additionally, the hallway on ground floor was renovating, therefore some smells of paint and noise during the day was a little bit annoying.

It's located close to the centre and has food and transport options within walking distance. It felt a little unsafe at night but Uber can drop you off outside which was a relatively cheap option. Staff were amazing and accommodating throughout. The room has a big comfy bed, was clean and quiet. Only thing I didn't like was the drainage of the shower was slow, meaning it overflowed a little during shower time.
