Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests overwhelmingly praise the hotel's excellent location, with many noting its proximity to major attractions, public transport, and city landmarks. Spacious rooms and apartment-style layouts are also appreciated, especially for families and longer stays. However, there are frequent complaints about the elevators being too few and slow, causing long waits. Breakfast receives mixed feedback, with some guests finding it adequate and others considering it basic or lacking variety. Cleanliness and room condition are generally acceptable, though a few reviews mention musty smells or the need for renovation. Overall, the positives of location and space outweigh the negatives for most guests.
