clean room great range of options wide array of choices
I found the room to be clean and bathed in sunlight. An evening meal in the restaurant offered many tempting options, a true delight. Breakfast presented a wide array of choices. I even met other travelers.
The bar area had a ceiling that felt a bit low for me, but this was a minor detail.
