I’m actually surprised that more reviews have not given a clearer and more honest review of the space. I will start off with the pros. It is an ideal and central location. It’s two stops by metro from Central station.
I stayed at the Loft for two weeks but I almost cancelled after I walked into the space and it had a very foul mildew odor. Also, having to hang my clothes on the wall wasn’t ideal for me because I still had to live out of my suitcase for two weeks.
It is a spacious loft and part of the reason I booked it was bc of the look. I only decided to stay was because I had unpacked and had work to do. Speaking of work, I noticed that the WiFi was open and not password protected. Normally that’s fine I guess but that also means probably many people are connected to the WiFi which slows down the internet.
I requested WiFi that was password protected and that was given to me later that day. It was much better when it came to my upload speeds but still shaky service but I also think that might be a Europe thing.
The area is a busy street during the day but not very busy at night. I wasn’t bothered by the outside noise. However, I was woken a few times during my stay by noise within the loft. I’m not sure what the upstairs neighbors were doing at 7am but it was loud and lasted hours.
The neighborhood has a lot of food options including the Thai place that everyone mentions. I have to say everyone at the Thai spot were so friendly and gracious.
Overall, it is a big room that is in a central location. If you have a short stay and don’t mind a smell then it’s perfect. I wouldn’t recommend it for a longer stay.
