excellent locationnearby supermarketfriendly stafflong queuedifficult refillssingle beds
I found the location excellent. A supermarket was very close. It was also convenient to be near the metro station. The staff were very friendly and helpful (Susana and Laura were really good).
The breakfast setup required a long wait. The queue made refills difficult. I also requested a double bed but received two single beds, with no way to join them.

mixed feelings about my stay

massive selectioncongested roomdoor chain
the included breakfast had a massive selection that was adequate for my needs.
the room was quite small i think they tried to make it a family room but it felt congested. on the last day of my stay someone reprogrammed their access key with our credentials and tried to enter our room while my wife and kids were inside it was scary. luckily the door chain was on preventing entry but it was still unsettling.
