The room was clean, and the staff was friendly! The breakfast was AMAZING!!! It had many options available, so there was always something new to try.

The room was not completely soundproof, so I could hear some noise from the corridor.

the breakfast buffet had many options. the staff at breakfast were also attentive and helpful. the location was quite convenient for accessing central attractions.

the room felt quite small. the shower was positioned on the side wall and i had to be cautious not to spill water. the courtyard view was directly onto a ventilation room and a wall, i did not like this at all.
