The room was very clean. I liked that the location was excellent. it was very close to all amenities and attractions. the journey to the airport and train station by taxi was short. the air conditioning in the room was a great feature. the shower was great. I had a comfortable bed.

i felt that the sound insulation wasn't optimal, and noises from other rooms were audible. it wasn't a significant issue, but i noticed it.

bad soundproofing smoky room

The location suited my needs as a traveler quite well I must say it was close to attractions.

I discovered the soundproofing was not ideal I could clearly hear conversations next door. The room they initially offered smelled strongly of smoke a rather unpleasant start I thought. Eventually staff moved me to a smaller room after I raised my concerns.
