The hotel is in a great location and the rooms large and comfortable overall. That said, I found the room to be very hot even when opening the window on a 0 degree celcius night and not possible to leave the window open as the smell of smoke from those smoking on the balcony next door. Also, the paint was chipping in the windows, and the floor of the hallway on my floor to the lift was filthy. It looked like it had not been vacuumed in a month. My room was very clean though, so it was not a huge issue. I also found it strange that it is the only hotel where I stayed during a 6 week trip that did not offer coffee or kettle in the room. The food at Pulse was also very good. Breakfast was so-so. All that said, I would probably stay here again.
