Adequate Stay

The room was spacious. Blackout curtains were great. The bed was comfortable. The location was good for accessing public transport.
The breakfast buffet was not up to par. There were few plates or cutlery when I visited. The food was not covered and there was no sanitizer available. There was a general lack of hygiene.
