Overall good and efficient. Next time I will make sure the room is above floor 3 and not hidden behind the conference area. Otherwise you end up almost under ground in the back part of the building. Front desk staff should advise about that.

There was no hot water in my room the whole time I was there. They couldn’t fix it. The best they could do was tell me run the sink at the same time to circulate the hot water better.

It was just what i was looking for. Familiar with the area, wanted something close to Metro, and lot's of other options. Elsadig made us feel welcome from the minute we walked in the door. Explained everything in a friendly, fun way. Room was comfortable and quiet. Had a drink and bite in Certo, it was great and Raheem took good care of us. I will stay here again.
