Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: business
Positive: No noise from downstairs which was good. Great location close to station. Staff were accommodating with an early check-in. Room was good size, comfortable bed, bathroom modern.
Negative: Overall, the room and bathroom were clean except unfortunately the shower had pubic hair in it from the previous guest. A little more diligence with cleaning required. Other than that, all good.
