President Hotel

A nightmarish experience! The room had no air conditioning, and being on the 6th floor in summer felt like a steam oven. It was old and dirty. I had booked for four nights, but I checked out after just one night!

The location is super convenient. The breakfast, compared to the room conditions, is a whole star better; the variety is exactly the same every day, very consistent. No AC, but hey, there's a fan!

The only downside was how hot it was; the ventilation wasn't great. The lobby was actually very cool, but the room was hot. The breakfast was a fantastic, very traditional English breakfast. Aside from the air conditioning, there's nothing to complain about! Oh, and when checking in, sometimes there's only one person working, even when the line is long and there are three service stations available. The nearby streets are really nice though.

It's very hot right now and there's no air conditioning. The fan is also very small. The view isn't great, it looks out onto an air shaft. However, the bathroom is okay, and the breakfast was very good. Check-in was relatively efficient, okay!

I stayed at this hotel before in winter and found the location and service to be quite good, plus it felt very safe for a big hotel. This time, I came in summer and it was really frustrating because there's no air conditioning, and we hit a heatwave. For a thousand-dollar hotel to just offer a fan and windows that only open a crack (and it's noisy outside because it's on a busy street), it made for a really poor night's sleep.
