My stay there was great, rooms where clean, a great desk to work on, comfortable bed and sound proof room. However there was limited ventilation, food was too spicy but the potions where great. The wifi though wasn't for doing your weekend work, i was getting speeds of up too 2mb/s with occasional spikes of 10mb/s. Thus for work their netwrok needs improvement
