adequate location and service
convenient location vegetarian options elevator noise drain smell
the location is convenient, near transport options. breakfast included a lot of choices for vegetarians, like local and english options. i appreciate it very much.
the room i had was next to the elevator, it made noise at day and night. the drain in the bathroom had a bad smell, so i had to keep the door closed.

unprofessional staff loud noises
i had a 'twin room'. upon arrival, i was asked to give a 5-star rating. the staff member even tried to take my phone to do it himself. i also noticed loud noises from the kitchen late at night. this wasn't the relaxing experience i wanted.
