The room was clean enough. Location was also really good. Reception staff were extremely friendly and helped us with the air conditioning problem of our room. The only problem related with the hotel that is is ground heating system and not working properly. So that it was little bit cold in the room. Besides these thank you for the night staff of reception lady helping us.
