attentive staff seamless check-in clean room small room tiny bathroom limited privacy
the staff were always ready to help with a smile. they were attentive too. from check-in, everything looked seamless. the room itself was clean.
the room, a petite, felt small. there wasn't enough space for two people to stand comfortably. the bathroom was tiny too. the window faced directly onto the street and i needed to keep the blind closed.

I found the staff helpful. Altaf and Liam provided assistance addressing my questions about the city. They also delivered excellent service. The hotel vibe and interior had many things to look at and admire. It looked very well kept. My room had all the appliances I needed. The bathroom was lovely and clean with a nice shower.
My room was very small. There was not much space to move around.
