I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were small but just enough, though being located in the attic without air conditioning made it uncomfortable on a hot, humid night. The noise from the halls was a bit bothersome. On the bright side, the check-in process at the hotel was amazing and very quick.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. On the positive side, the rooms were clean and quiet, providing a cozy atmosphere. However, the construction quality was poor, especially for the attic room I was in, with no A/C and a single small window on a hot, humid night. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff who took good care of me. The location was convenient, close to public transportation and amenities, but the dining experience was a bit disappointing with limited options. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.
