Very good stay, I would repeat the stay
Pros:

the room was very good and clean, and it was calm around (no noise)

Cons:

the staff, unfortunatelly I needed help with the laundry machine, and i was about to be attended, when suddently another guy cut the line, and the receptionist gave him preference to be attended ; and I was in a hurry, because I have to go out to do some stuff and tour, and I had a very wast of my time, and desapointed with the help, I had to find out by myself to solve the laundry machine issue, otherwise I would be with no clothes wash ; but other than this service everything else was very good (I will not only complain).

Pros:

The room was fine and clean.

Cons:

Nothing was around the neighborhood. It is a good place to stay if you are going to do something in the neighborhood. One night was ok but the description in the booking with miles were not accurate.
