long walk heavy luggage
The staff were kind. They answered questions prior to the visit. They were helpful when my friends and I needed something.
The room was quite small. I expected that given the price. It can be a long walk from the subway to the hotel, especially if you have heavy luggage. That was annoying.

lack of desk confusing signage
I found the lack of a desk in the room quite inconvenient. I had to work , I needed a proper workspace. Using the bed or floor was not ideal. the signage within the hotel was confusing. It reminded me of a maze trying to navigate between the lobby and my room. I often got lost, this added unnecessary stress to my trip.
