Reviews
There's a bar on the rooftop with daily events!
Convenience stores and tapas bars were nearby, and the transportation was great, so I was very satisfied!
There's no fridge in the room, so I borrowed a bottle cooler set!
No fridge. AC is super inconsistent. Very cheap blow dryer. Extremely small closet space. Just big enough to hold 3 things. Smart TV doesn't not connect properly as a smart tv should. WiFi constantly asks you to sign back in.
Service was decent if you needed it. No one really greets you when you come and go at the front desk.
They should transparently list what you can request, and what you can't toxmake things easier.
