EXCELLENT Quirky Stay!

early check-incomfortable bedsfree coffeemany stairs
I found the location to be SUPER convenient, near transport lines! The staff allowed us to check in early. After that early flight this was appreciated. The beds were very comfortable (i slept like a log!). Tea and coffee were available in the lobby too.
The stairs were a lot to climb. The room decor felt different compared to what i'm used to. The room felt quite small.
Dining

A variety of breakfast bars, croissants, and water were available in the morning . There was even a coffee machine, light breakfast before heading out for the day.
