“What stands out here is the seasonal rooftop pool, a definite plus in a city where you're likely doing a lot of walking. The option for kids to eat free is a real advantage for families exploring the capital, and with proximity to a few Metro stops, it balances affordability with access to major attractions. I do get the impression that some of the rooms could use a bit of attention, but overall it seems a practical base for seeing the sights.”
