adequate stay with some drawbacks

elevator wait timesbreakfast queuing system
the elevator wait times were unacceptable. i waited up to 15 minutes to get to the lobby. also, breakfast involved a ridiculous queuing system. i had to register, wait for an elevator, and then wait again for a table. this whole process took almost an hour each morning.

the location was convenient for getting around.
The elevators were slow. Waiting times often exceeded 15 minutes. the room cleaning was inconsistent. I even found some empty water bottles from the previous guest. the breakfast experience was chaotic, with long queues and a setup resembling a theme park waiting line.
