The location is great for exploring. The room has good size. I found it comfortable with space to work. Breakfast was really good and the staff were very good too.
The shower pressure was poor. Water was not hot enough. Dinner at the restaurant did not meet expectations for the price. Some of our cheapest dining experiences elsewhere were much better.

Breakfast included fresh fruit and sliced baguettes along with various jams. Coffee tasted hot and well-made. The rooftop pool and bar area provided lovely views across the area. The location allowed convenient walking to many points of interest.
My room key was a card attached to a weighted number plate, unwieldy to carry.

I liked the rooftop pool and bar. It really provided a good space to relax after sightseeing. the room was spacious. i also found the breakfast selection to be very good with many choices that suit different tastes.
the room atmosphere was a bit dim, and i felt there could have been more lights near the working table.
