adequate stay near the station
limited ventilation
guests were even discouraged from using the stairs, which i found inconvenient (i prefer taking the stairs when possible). furthermore, controlling the room temperature proved difficult. it was warmer than i prefer, and the limited window opening did little to improve the airflow.

this hotel provides twin rooms with separate beds, a feature not common in all APA chain hotels. the location is convenient for train travel. breakfast included a wide array of national and continental dishes, along with home-made ice cream. relaxing in the hot SPA baths after a day of walking was also a great perk.

easy accessdust layerfree pornography
The location was close to the train station and access to the city WAS easy.
The room cleanliness REALLY needs improvement. I found an obvious layer of dust on the bed head. Housekeeping didn't remove it. the hotel provides free pornography on TV, and there are no safety measures to protect children accessing it. This made the hotel seem like a cheap motel.
