Expensive and noisy.
Pros:

I asked if it was possible to have a room away from the lifts and was provided with one.
Shower was powerful.

Cons:

The floors in the rooms are lino and very noisy from the room above. Didn't seem like any sound was muffled. When the room above flushed their toilet it sounded like a rushing river was coming through the ceiling.
The TV did not work - not a major issue for me but may have been for someone else.

Bella esperienza
Pros:

Staff cordiale, molto flessibile il check-in e check-out, e molto comodo il deposito bagagli. Buona posizione vicino a mezzi pubblici. Stanza pulita e accogliente

Cons:

Bagno tutto sommato buono ma sembrava uno da cabina di traghetto, comunque pulito e funzionale. Letto un pochino rumoroso.

Pros:

Tivemos uma experiência excelente no hotel! A atendente Maria foi simplesmente maravilhosa, muito educada, simpática e sempre pronta para ajudar em tudo o que precisávamos. O restante da equipe também foi muito atencioso e prestativo.

A limpeza estava sempre impecável, o que fez toda a diferença durante a estadia. Além disso, a localização é ótima, bem próxima ao metrô, facilitando muito a locomoção.

Gostamos de absolutamente tudo e com certeza voltaríamos!

Ok for 1 night but other hotels with similar prices have much better rooms.
Pros:

Great location and lovely breakfast. The staff are very helpful.

Cons:

Having stayed there on numerous occasions we felt that the rooms have become rather shabby and are not at all welcoming which you do expect even for a 1 night stay. The carpets have been replaced with cheap lino, the bed was hard and there was no mattress protector so the mattress was visible. The pod bathrooms are becoming dated and need replacing.

Pros:

De ligging, het ontbijt, de propere kamer en douche en het lieve personeel.

Cons:

Het was een beetje duur. Het is een beetje irritant als je op de lichtknop drukt dat dan alle lichten aan gaan want als je naar het toilet gaat in de nacht en je steekt het licht aan dan word de rest van de kamer ook wakker.
