An Okay Stay

breakfast selectionrooftop viewhard mattressnoisy room
The breakfast buffet had a great selection. I enjoyed the rooftop view during breakfast. The location is amazing. I was close to the metro.
The mattress was old and very hard. I didn't sleep well. The room was noisy because it was next to a lift shaft. The shaft goes up to the roof bar.
