The hotel rooms were quite functional but lacking character in their decoration. The amenities like free Wi-Fi and complimentary items such as water, sweets, and toothbrushes were nice touches, though the lack of soap and insufficient curtain coverage for blocking light affected the quality of sleep. The rooms were a bit warm, even in December, but manageable with an open window.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice and quiet, which was a big plus for me, but they felt a bit too minimalist in style, almost like a monk's cell. On the bright side, they were comfy and very quiet, and I appreciated the tea/coffee facilities and complimentary bottles of water. However, the room I stayed in was right under the roof with a sloping ceiling and one small window that was too high to open or see outside.
