terrible noise not soundproof
The location was convenient. It was near to places i wanted to visit.
The noise from the street was terrible. i couldn't sleep well at all. It sounded like ambulances all night. the room was not soundproof at all. the room felt more like a 4-star than a 5-star. The noise was unacceptable.

Excellent Stay
separate area sofa bed easy access
The suite had a separate living area with a sofa bed (perfect for families). The location was convenient, with easy access to many places. The staff were quick, they dealt with everything efficiently. Check-in and check-out were very fast.
The rooms, while renovated, felt a little smaller than expected.
