the hotel location was acceptable, with easy access to nearby public transportation.
The room i was assigned, a classic double room, was quite disappointing. there was a persistent, unpleasant odor coming from the bathroom. It smelled strongly of sewage. spending any time in there was genuinely unbearable, and i find that unacceptable.

The breakfast buffet was extensive with many options. The hotel staff was very helpful with directions. My room had a spacious layout (which I liked).
The air conditioning was not adjustable (it was either on or off). The room felt a bit outdated. Hallway noise was noticeable late at night.

I found the location very convenient. It was easy to walk to many attractions and public transport was close (I used the metro frequently). The included breakfast was very satisfying with a good variety. The hotel staff were polite and professional throughout my stay.
I noticed some dust on the windows and shutters in my room. I think these areas could benefit from more regular cleaning to improve the overall cleanliness.
