excellent city stay!

full kitchenroom servicevisitor allowance

The room featured a balcony. The cityscape was quite admirable. the room included a separate living area and a full kitchen for use. i used the full room service for the three nights i stayed and experienced no issues.

i encountered an issue upon check-in regarding visitor allowances. initially, i was informed that having family visit briefly before dinner was acceptable after writing down their names. another staff member then stated that only one guest was permitted at a time. this policy was quite inconvenient for our short gathering.

Location

9/10

The hotel is near the ferry, only two minutes by foot. a central business district is also nearby. Only five minutes are needed to walk there. i found the location advantageous for accessing key city areas.

Service

The staff were quite helpful and friendly . It was excellent. when i required assistance with my luggage, the concierge promptly attended to my needs. i certainly appreciated their efficiency.

Dining

While there is no on-site dining available, numerous cafes are within a short walk. meal delivery services were easily accessible. This provided ample choices for different meals. menus for nearby establishments were helpfully provided.
