convenient location helpful staff airport plan broken elevator open door house cleaning

The location was very convenient. It was less than 5 minutes walk from the nearest metro station. The staff was helpful with information about things to do. They helped with plans to get to the airport. The staff was amazing.

The elevator was concerning. It did break down and we had to climb four flights of stairs. She told me house cleaning went in, but there was no need to clean.
