It's a weird ghost hotel with no front desk staff and the lights on motion sensors. Gives the place a eerie feel. The room was a good size, nice beds and large bathroom. There were no controls for the air conditioning so the room was freezing. The neighbourhood was nice, close to subways and eating places.

Had my family visit from out of the country and this place was perfect for a short term stay. Clean room and nice private restroom. Constructing along the Main Street but the noises didn’t come through the room. Included soap in the restroom and in the shower. Check in process was easy with keys directly on the phone via link on text. Overall great experience!

Has the basics

The room was small but had all the basics needed and was clean, the bed was comfortable. I had a shared bathroom which was nice and kept clean. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything going on in the corridors very loudly, as well as pipes/the elevator, which is quite disturbing if you are a light sleeper. The shower was also very cold every time I used it. During my stay the lock on my door broke, which is no bodies fault, these things happen, however it too far too long for somebody to come and fix my door. I was left in the waiting room for three hours during night time waiting for someone to fix my door so I could enter my room. There was also a lack of communication with me, the didn’t tell me how long it was roughly going to take or keep me updated on the situation. When the man came to fix my door they hadn’t told him that I was in the waiting room, so he went to fix my door and I didn’t even know until I called asking for an update. This was unacceptable and very stressful. I have to say that the maintenance man was very kind though.

立地がよく、使い勝手が良かったです。 外に飲食店があるので、たまにうるさかったですが、睡眠に支障はありませんでした。気になる方は気になるかもしれません。 シャワーの排水溝が詰まってしまったため、確認をお願いした時には、すぐにチャット対応をしてくださいましたが、確認のために部屋に来ていただいたかどうかは分かりませんでした。排水溝のカバーを取り外すことで無理なく使用ができたので、そのまま使用することにし、気になることはなくなりました。 他の口コミに汚いとあったので、身構えていましたが、シーツもお風呂場もカーテンも何も気になるところはありませんでした。

Aunque su limpieza era diaria, había polvo por muchos sitios. No tengo opinión alguna del personal porque nunca vimos ninguno, tanto el checkin como el checkout fue por una máquina dispuesta en la entrada. El edificio se ve viejo con habitaciones remodeladas y no creo que cueste lo que costó. Lo que vale la pena es dónde está situado, muy cerca del centro.

Vlakbij metro dus van daaruit alles toegankelijk. Kamer en badkamer zeer netjes. Iedere dag terug komen in opgeruimde kamer was heel fijn. In nacht wel geregeld luid pratende mensen buiten, die door straat liepen. Dat enig minpuntje.

Zou graag deel van betaling terugzien Er is geen personeel alleen de schoonmaak en die waren vriendelijk De geheel digitale wijze tot toegang is alkeen geschikt voor digitaal grootgebrachten Kamer heel basic en simpel redelijke prijs zou zijn tussen 50 en 90 euro per nacht Ook omdat er GEEN enkele voirziening is

チェックイン時と言うよりも建物に入る時が複雑。 まず全てのインストラクションがスペイン語になっているのでわかりづらい。建物の外見が普通のビルなのでよく若ならなかった。入館時にまず暗証番号を入力してカギを開けるのだが、その暗証番号がメールで送られて来たけどその説明がスペイン語で最初はよく解らなかった。 館内にはレセプションは無く受付用のタブレットが置かれていた。そこは英語案内もあり必要なことを入力しクレジットカード決済を済ませ部屋番号が示される。 それでも入室できるのは午後3時から。中には私と同じ境遇のフランス人が2人いた。 ただこの複雑な手続きが済むとあとは問題なし。 地下鉄の駅からも近く空港からは公共交通機関を乗り継いでスムースに行ける。
