“I found the keypad check-in particularly convenient for late arrivals, and the proximity to the city center strikes a reasonable balance, approximately a 30-minute walk. The rooms are clean, and functional workspaces are a plus. Shared spaces, including the kitchen, are well-maintained and provide a secure, comfortable environment.”
