The bathroom felt quite small. A bad smell came from the drains. I mentioned it, but nothing changed. This smell drifted from the bathroom into the bedroom. The air conditioning also did not seem effective. The room became too warm even with the window ajar.

The location on portland street was useful. It offered easy access to nearby places. The staff was friendly all the way throughout the building. The hotel has a modern style.
The room was cold because outside temperature was sub zero. The heater didn't work properly. It seems the heating was controlled centrally. It got warmer in the morning though.
