Review Score:   6
Summary: 6 out of 10 this hotel. Breakfast is quite good ,the room is clean. However the location is a bit remote, very few trains between the west and east stations, unless you don’t mind walking about 20 minutes from one to the other. The WiFi in the room is very weak, it often took around 10 minutes to connect, and the connection would drop within 2 minutes. Most of time I couldn’t connect at all, so it was basically unusable in room.
