the staff were nice and they did deliver my requested items to the room.
i found several problems, though. the room i booked did not have proper soundproofing, so street noise was a real issue. also, the breakfast tasted quite average, nothing special. the duty managers i spoke to also seemed indifferent, disappointing.
