Acceptable Location, Some Disappointments
cold room missing warmth
The location was great. A short walk to the station was quite convenient.
The room itself looked nice, but it was very cold. The provided decor also didn't compensate for the lack of warmth and comfort.

street noise temperature control
The room felt too warm despite my efforts to adjust it. I attempted to open the windows for ventilation, but the noise from the street became disruptive. I found the lack of temperature control in the room disappointing. I expected better from my stay considering the overall rating of the place.

central location spacious bedroom varied breakfast
The hotel's location is really central. It allowed quick access to main attractions. the room was spacious, it included a comfortable bed. i liked the fire in the lobby a lot, it added a warm touch. breakfast was varied, and it had options for everyone.
The stairwells smelled dusty. It was a bit off-putting.

mixed experience due to noise and heat
noticeable noise room temperature
the location was quite convenient (close to transportation).
my room was too warm, even with the window slightly open, the noise from outside was noticeable and disruptive. the doors in the hallway also slammed shut often. i could feel the lift moving from my room.
