Não recomendo
Pros:

A acomodação está muito bem localizada, bem perto de uma estação de metrô e pontos de ônibus.

Cons:

Tive contato com alguns funcionários e somente um falava inglês decentemente. O quarto é pequeno demais. Fiz uso do serviço de lavar e secar roupa, porém a secagem deixou muito a desejar. Coloquei uma quantidade de roupa compatível com o peso recomendado, sequei as roupas duas vezes e ainda assim saíram úmidas. Tive de deixá-las penduradas dentro do quarto (que não tinha armário) para que secassem. Além disso, o Wi-Fi do quarto era terrível. Por três dias seguidos tive que reclamar disso na recepção. A impressão que ficou é que o Wi-Fi era desligado à noite e religado de manhã.

Pros:

Everything about this Hotel spelled comfort. It was reasonably priced and close to sights and shops. It was squeaky clean and the room was cleaned regularly with towels and bottles of water fresh daily. There was a washing machine and dryer as well as a microwave on the ground floor. I would not have any hesitation in staying here again.

Cons:

Can't think of anything.

Posizione e 7 eleven di fronte
Pros:

Posizione pazzesca, ci ha permesso di muoverci sempre a piedi e in metro comodamente. Pranzo al mercato per poi rientrare. 7 eleven proprio davanti.

Cons:

Stanze un po’ piccole come negli standard
