rooftop swimming pool excellent location noticeable smell complimentary water
I found the rooftop swimming pool and deck chairs to be very enjoyable. The location near a running park was excellent too, it is beautiful for a morning run.
The room had a noticeable smell, perhaps from the canalization. I also noticed that you only get two complimentary bottles of water upon arrival, after that it is on request.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
constant humming high noise
The location was quite convenient (easy access to main attractions).
The noise level in the hotel was disruptive. Doors slamming at all hours made it difficult to rest. Housekeeping started very early, ignoring the need for peace and quiet. My room, on the eleventh floor, sounded like it was right under the pool motor. A constant humming noise was present.

mixed feelings about the stay
strong smell poor cleaning
the location was acceptable because it provided quick access to public transport.
The room i was initially given had a very strong and weird smell. i think it came from the wallpaper glue because i am asthmatic. the cleaning was also not thorough. Side tables were not touched, and a bag of empty chips was left untouched.
