Bad: - Rooms are VERY small. Could barely move around. - Walls are paper thin. If the receptionist coughed, we heard it. The whole floor is very small and the rooms are right next to reception/coffee area. So at 7 am, you can hear the coffee machine being cleaned. - Beds are hard as rocks, really uncomfortable. Good: - Receptionist there all night, we checked in late. - A few restaurants nearby to eat something - Building has secure entrance with buzzer so feels safe - Didn't see any bugs
