underwhelming experience and room issues
small room noisy room
The room felt smaller than expected. It was more like a box. I found little space for luggage. A CONSTANT noise from the trams outside disrupted sleep. I also noticed the smart tv didn't work, disappointing.

small entrance reluctant receptionist
the bar prices were reasonable and had a good vibe.
the entrance is small. i took a lift to reception. the hotel seemed like an old house with many stairs and i found that walking was needed to reach my room! the receptionist seemed reluctant about the checkout time too. i thought it was quite annoying.
