Not going back.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Inner circle rooms are close to the massive air conditioner, which makes them very noisy at night. When informed reception about it, received a sarcastic smile back. I stayed here two times, both times, I had hair on my plate at the breakfast. Long dark hair. No apology in both cases was offered by the hotel staff after I made a complain.
