i found the location very accessible! it was literally a block away from the metro and train stations. the staff was really nice and helped me with directions and nice banter. even the towels smelled so nice.
the elevator is tiny! my wife and i could barely fit, and with our luggage we had to take turns. the stairs are hilariously small and steep.
