When I stayed at the hotel, I found it to be in a great location, very close to excellent public transportation options. However, some improvements are needed to make it easier to find by car despite its central location. The service was helpful, but a bit more warmth and knowledge on vegetarian options would have been appreciated. The dining experience was extensive and delicious, offering a wide variety of food. The rooms, although cozy and clean, were quite small and lacked basic amenities like ironing equipment. The hotel facilities were good overall, but a few additions could elevate the experience even more.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very spacious, with a mini bar and a comfortable double bed, but the large bathroom felt a bit outdated. The service was friendly, but there was a lack of knowledge on vegetarian options. The location was convenient, close to the subway and restaurants, though the pricing seemed a bit high for what was offered. The dining options were good, with a delicious breakfast available until late, but the hot food selection was limited. The facilities were decent, offering everything expected, but the overall value for money was questionable.

The hotel had a very good location with a nice view and was comfortable, although the rooms were small for a family with children, which is somewhat expected in a Holiday Inn Express. The service was very helpful and well-informed about the city, even accommodating an early check-in request. The dining experience was decent, with room for improvement in breakfast options. The location was great, providing easy access to public transport and markets. The facilities were satisfactory, with a few shortcomings but overall comfortable and reasonably priced.

The hotel had a lovely and clean room with a huge shower offering amazing hot water and pressure. However, the room was small with two single beds instead of a double, which was a bit of a letdown. The service was fantastic, especially with their help in finding us a room for early check-in when we arrived tired. The location was perfect for traveling with U trains, though it did get congested at peak times. Dining was tasty but monotonous, lacking variety, and the breakfast selection was limited. The facilities were good overall.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location was just perfect, with easy access to public transportation and a variety of nearby establishments.

The room I stayed in was on the main floor and had a pull-out couch for the children. The small bathroom was a bit inconvenient, but the layout with one king size bed for the adults and two individual beds for the kids was practical. Unfortunately, there was a strong chemical smell in the room.

The staff members were helpful, especially given our delayed arrival in the early hours of the morning due to bad weather. However, the service varied from smug and rude to mildly disinterested at times. It would have been beneficial if they had more knowledge about vegetarian food options. On the bright side, we received a nice welcome drink upon check-in.

The hotel's location was a huge plus, being very close to public transportation and convenient to reach from the train station.
