10/10 great stay! I would come back again and would definitely recommend for solo travelers. The room was clean, comfortable and very modern. The hair dryer was also a nice surprise since it was more modern than most hotels tend to use. The staff was very friendly and helpful! I always looked forward to coming back to my room at the end of the night.
