the room was huge. it felt more like an apartment than a regular room! the king size bed was really comfortable, and there was also a table with chairs. i especially loved the wide shower with hot water and fragrant soaps!!!

the hotel lacked an elevator for handling luggage, requiring navigation of approximately seven steps to reach the reception area.
