decent experience

great location modern room unusable wi-fi small gym

the hotel location is super convenient, just a short walk to major attractions. i really liked how clean and modern the room was, it definitely met my expectations.

The wi-fi was pretty much unusable in my room. It kept disconnecting. also, the gym is quite small with limited equipment, a bit disappointing.
