"There is only instant coffee, no water or sparkling water in the room , no sparkling water at breakfast. No coffee in the hotel after breakfast , no restaurant in the hotel after breakfast. In other words if ur satisfied walking the streets for a lunch or dinner and you don't enjoy sparkling or filter or nespresso coffee then this is the place for you, and I forgot to mention they won't call cabs unless ur going to the airport, Personally had I known this I wouldn't have booked here."

"I stayed four nights.. Front Desk was not very friendly, seemed a bit annoyed to check me in. short answers, no smile. Didn't acknoledge me coming in our going. Four nights, they cleaned the room / changed linen on day 3, not Day 2 as I asked when they told me they would only do it every other day. I long for the days when nice hotels at least changed linen / swapped towels on time."
