The staff was super helpful, always ready to assist with anything i needed. the location was really convenient for exploring the area around. i also appreciated the quick check-in process. It was so smooth and efficient, which really helped after a long journey.
The insulation in the room was not great. i could hear a lot of noise from other rooms and outside. the breakfast menu could definitely use some improvement. I found it a bit limited. i also noticed some hairs in the bedroom when i first arrived and they weren't mine.
