Guest sentiment
- Cleanliness7.8
Mixed signals: several guests praised clean rooms, rooftop pool and general tidiness, but there are specific complaints about dirty carpets, lingering smells and dated bathroom elements.
- Service8.5
Generally helpful staff noted (returned an iPad, swift room move), but some guests reported inconsistent or only average friendliness at reception and occasional less-warm interactions.
- Location9.0
Consistently praised: central location with easy access to transport, embassies and attractions; many guests highlighted walkability and neighborhood convenience.
- Room Quality7.6
Rooms are described as spacious and comfortable by some, but multiple mentions of outdated fittings, worn carpets, small bathrooms and non-functional fixtures lower this score.
- Amenities8.9
Strong amenities: rooftop pool, on-site restaurant and late-night options (Johnny Rockets) and convenient extras were appreciated, though some room amenities were initially non-functional for a few guests.
- Value for Money7.5
Mixed value: good-quality breakfast and location support value, but unexpected charges (children's breakfast), deposit handling delays and some outdated rooms reduce perceived value.
- Food and Beverage8.9
Food receives high praise in several reviews (notably excellent, varied breakfast), though a few guests found limited variety; overall F&B is a clear strength.
- Overall Experience8.2
Overall positive stay for many guests thanks to location, breakfast and clean rooms, tempered by occasional service inconsistencies, noise issues and some outdated room elements.
