Breakfast, how can a place manage to mess up a breakfast?. Coffee, which is awful served in paper cups, limp bacon, hard eggs and fizzy fruit salad. 👏👏👏 also did not help that when I left the chef was checking in delivery whilst smoking 👌 brilliant

5.0Near the metro station
They didn't bring us water every day. We have to ask them to send, and they obligate us to bring it by ourself. I book a superior room, it has to be ready with other clean kit, like the ear cotton, slippers, tooth brush... but there wasn't

Great service by staff; our flight was cancelled and they offered us a meeting room for a couple of hours to work. Thank you, Halima!
