Family room is very compact - double bed against the wall and child bed in space at end of double so not much space. Ok for 1 night and what we needed for a quick pass through.

The smallest rooms ever, the second single bed came out of the only closet at the foot of the other single bed that were like sleeping on bricks. No where no put your clothes or anything else for that matter. No cable TV hooked up so no watching anything through your phone onto the tv in english Felt like it was being renovated and wasn't quite finished yet.

It was sufficient for our needs, but it wasn't located near anything else. It is "budget friendly" because everything is carte blanch. The breakfast is overpriced, but we were able to get coffee and a croissant for $3.50 each. Our room was too small to leave our luggage open, and the bed was pushed against a wall, so one had to climb over the other. The A/C seemed to turn off at night, and we woke up sweating. It was an easy walk to the train station, but there was nothing to do near the hotel. Most of the staff was very friendly, but not all.
