The hotel was really dirty. The rooms smelled like sewer/sewage. The breakfast staff was terrible. They didn’t maintain the breakfast buffet; for example no silverware or real coffee cups for cappuccinos. They had plastic water cups for the coffee

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Really nice, clean hotel in a good location close to the train station. The staff were very kind and helpful. The air conditioning worked well and kept the room cool. The windows blocked out the street noise really well, not sure what kid of magical glass they use. The breakfast could use some improvement, we didn't find a lot of options that we liked. Also the listing is a little bit wonky on Expedia. I booked the superior quadruple room thinking we were getting two distinct environments (like the pictures showed), but it ended up being a standard room with 4 beds.

The place was ok when we checked in but shortly after there was a gas smell. We checked with the front desk and were told that it was not the first time. The cleck came in the room and sprayed air freshner and told us that should fix the smell. Both one of my kids and I started getting massive headaches and then Nausea. We found anotyer hotel and left as we didnt feel safe. As if today, we have yet to be reimbursed for both the room and the tourist tax.
