i stayed three nights. the staff was friendly and helpful. the location is near the metro. the hotel decor was lovely, i enjoyed it very much.

The hotel hallway felt quite narrow. The room was small, i expected a little more space. the shower was extra tiny. It was uncomfortable to shower there. the carpet had stains. It needed replacement.
