My stay was probably marred by the fact I arrived late after a big day of travel and my ground floor room's window opened onto the rubbish bins. Hot wet garbage smells and followed up by noise at 5AM next morning throwing rubbish into said bins. At least i didn't pay too much for this stay, but the stay did not live up to the advertising.
