convenient locationfriendly staffefficient air conditioningcomplimentary drinks
I found the location convenient. It was so close to the central station. the staff was friendly and always ready to assist! the room had air conditioning, a welcome feature on warmer days. i also appreciated the mini fridge stocked with complimentary drinks. That was a nice touch.
the walls seemed a bit thin, and i could sometimes hear noise from neighboring rooms.
