Reviews
Spacious, clean rooms with modern decor and super comfortable beds. The amenities were spot-on—fast Wi-Fi , a good work desk, and a well-equipped bathroom.
Breakfast 🥞 was excellent with a wide variety of fresh options, including pastries , Fruits 🍓 , and hot 🔥 dishes.
The location is convenient, just a short walk to metro 🚇 stations and easy access to both the airport and city 🏙️ center.
Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. Would definitely stay again!
There was also noise in the corridors late at night.
Very very very low water pressure in the shower.
Breakfast was good, but there is definitely room for improvement. The arrangement was complicated – the limited space at the buffet led to people bumping into each other and the situation was made worse by staff restocking the food, adding to the crowd and jostling.
On the last day, a staff member asked us to fill out a feedback form, but did not even give us time to finish our breakfast and wanted the form back unfilled, as they were clearly finishing their shift.
