Small rooms and slow elevator
Except the amazing service by the staff and reception who helped us a lot during check-in to lift our luggage at the door, welcome us, change the room to a bigger room, bring coffee pods when asked for, clean perfectly, this hotel has lot of improvement areas. It does not look like a 3 star. Really small rooms and slowest elevator you can imagine. The rooms are so small that we could not even open our luggage! The bathroom bathtub water leaks out as there is no proper plexi glass to keep the water in.

The space for the toilet was too little. Especially for larger people. It made going to the bathroom quite difficult.

Liked: Cleanliness
Convenient location, 5 minutes away from underground station and convenience stores. The front door to the hotel is supposed to be automatic, however it is locked most of the times and staff don’t pay attention if you are waiting to get in. We had to wait outside many times and had to almost bang on the doors to get the staff’s attention. The rooms are cramped. We had a family room. The sofa bed was made of 2 twins with a huge gap in between. My child’s leg got stuck in there while asleep. The heating/cooling unit is so loud. The guest experience manager was the only saving grace. He was very kind and understanding.
