I loved the breakfast buffet. It included many options. i found the location convenient, being close to public transportation.. the bus stop stood right by the hotel. the staff helped me with directions to local attractions. the cozy lounge area with complimentary coffee and tea impressed me.
The bathroom lacked a coffee machine. I would have enjoyed making a cup in my room.

the breakfast was good.
I wasn't happy with the room size. It felt quite small. also, i really missed having a kettle in the room. It would have been nice to make tea or coffee. basic amenities seemed to be lacking, like even a simple bottle of water was not provided.
