Acceptable Stay but With Room for Improvement
problematic room key room security
The location was quite convenient, placing me right in the center of everything.
My room key presented a frustrating challenge. It took multiple attempts, often requiring assistance from the staff, to unlock the door EACH time I returned. This issue caused unnecessary delays and a nagging concern regarding the security of the room.

The room felt very spacious and offered attractive decor. It was a superior double room! the staff greeted me with such kindness. the location proved ideal, about a short walk from many attractions. i found excellent room refreshments available. everything was spotlessly clean.
I noticed slightly tired decor in some areas. It was a minor detail in an otherwise lovely experience.
