8. When we mentioned this we were told that nothing could be done as the unit belonged to the next-door building - how about warning us or fitting some kind of sound-proofing on the windows?The washbasin in our bathroom was cracked, the toilet did not flush properly and overall the room was extremely cramped.

10. Rate reasonable--cheaper during mid-week; friendly and helpful staff; ok continental breakfastDownside: the halls and rooms are small, cramped and a bit worn--feels a bit like an upscale college dorm; can hear street noise even on the 6th floor; noisy A/C; maid did not replenish shampoo, etc.
