Biosphere: Tours y Actividades

Clean room and close to restaurants

The location is by far the strongest point, nearby tons of restaurants, the subway station and the downtown area. Having said this, I move now to the hotel itself: it's small which is good for me, that's convenient since I don't like too long going from my room to the street. The room is quirky: those 3 steps are funny, but can be certainly dangerous if distracted; the 2 showers in the huge bathroom are a nice feature (interesting when it comes to the full body window pointing to the bed), but the low water pressure is a big downer since 2 of their 3 modes are pretty much useless. The sink and the countertop around it is huge and comes pretty handy, I loved that (I hate it when I don't have an square inch to place my razor, for example, not the case here). The bed and pillows were comfortable and the curtains are really a blackout feature, so I slept really well without any noises coming from outside, that was great. The AC was very cold -- I tried playing around with the remote, but no luck. I didn't reach the staff for help, that's on me. The media entertainment system wasn't anything to write home about. Most of the channels are in French, which for a foreigner that only speaks its native language and English makes it difficult to find something enjoyable. Plus it doesn't support streaming, so I couldn't use my YouTube or other applications as I normally do when travelling. I overall give a 7.5 out of 10 because the price is very competitive.
