If you just wish to have somewhere to dump your stuff and lay your head, then this is the place for you. If you're hoping to spend a good deal of time in the hotel during your stay then don't stay here. The floor in the room where my mates stayed was soaking wet. The floor in my room was a little sticky. The location is ideal, literally 50-75 metres away from the Grasshopper. The downside of that is it seems to be the noisiest street on earth!! Shower was hit and miss between scorching or freezing!!
