We had nothing to complain about after our stay, we were 7 nights and there was no noise between rooms and room cleaning was good. We like the style and look of the hotel and the little cigar hotel bar didn't bother us, we felt it belonged there and shouldn't be changed because people don't like the smell. It makes the hotel unique I think. Location is absolutely brilliant in our opinion, the walking distances are so short to Ku'dam shopping street, train station and the zoo. Overall a fantastic stay for us. Just to throw in a couple cons if you like... I'd recommend they start renewing some furniture, chairs and such, and do some paintwork on the windows and balcony doors outside :)
