Clean
Why do I have to be held hostage on my departure day for a payment I’ve made online because money paid to booking.com have not reflected on their account.
Breakfast and convenience to the venue of my meeting
The bed was too tiny
Organization, wifi, safety
No slippers
The people were very nice. This hotel is 2 doors down from the American Embassy. If you have business to atend to there, I recommend this hotel for its location, value, and professionalism.
Safe place...confort rooms...saving box locked... Kitchen is v poor ..
Staff they are not honest
It was good,but I didn't like washroom floor looks a bit stained ?,apart from that everyone I met from reception and room attendant were really helpful and cooperative,nice people, very friendly.
Good breakfast options. Relatively quick service. Accommodating to special requests. Quick responses via email. Easy access to embassies. Safe environment. Helpful with finding taxis/transport.
Room service and cleanings could have been more consistent, as in remembering to add waters and toilet paper in the room daily. Bathroom sink was a bit clogged. Kitchen sink had only a dribble of water.
Very close to the American Embassy, and a very safe neighborhood, I made it on time just a few minutes walk
The location was very close to where I had to be for work.
The facility was dirty and lacked basic amenities.
The bathroom had no slippers , the room was tinny compared to what was expected , the water drainage stystem for the bathroom is alittle poor
Their bathroom , water drainage in there was bad , and no slippers
Breakfast was very good. the location was great because it was just five minutes away from the UN office where I had my meetings. Moreover, there are shops and good restaurants around with good food. The place is quiet, with good staff ready to assist people.
The bed was small and I was not informed before that the bed was small so I had to manage it. Even though small and low, I slept on it without any difficulty. I recommend that booking inform us of the sizes of bed etc.
Customer service
