Overall, we had a decent stay, and with a few improvements it could easily become a great option.
The exterior of the building was ok, though the immediate surroundings aren’t.
Several hotels nearby with the price range and plenty of restaurants within walking distance.
Pros
Great location: About 15–25 minutes walk to main tourist attractions. Bus stops and the metro only a short walk away.
Clean on arrival: Fresh towels & toiletries
The room had good space and the beds were very comfortable.
Minor Issues
Kitchenette: The workspace and utensils are quite limited, fine for small meals
Check‑in instructions: Instructions didn’t arrive at the promised time (noon), so we had to call.
Pillows: Only three pillows were provided. Having an extra per person would have been helpful
Nearby events: There were concerts at the Gasworks a block behind, so there was some noise.
Cons
The windows don’t seem to block sound, so street noise is noticeable
No towel refresh — With no maid service, towels were used for five days. They don’t dry well in the room
There were no instructions on dispose of rubbish (especially bathroom waste), and no extra bin bags.
Couple of nights, people were dragging furniture around at 2am
Overall
We understand this is more of an rental, but since housekeeping is in the building daily, it would be great if guests could request fresh towels or bin bags—perhaps even for a small fee.Clearer instructions for waste disposal or a designated pickup
