We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel in terms of cleanliness, breakfast, and location near the metro station. The room and bathroom were spotless, and the daily breakfast provided us with a variety of delicious options. The hotel is conveniently located very close to the metro station, allowing us to easily explore the city.
Didn't dislike anything about the hotel.
