The location was perfect for my needs. It was close to stores and restaurants.

I found the reception staff to be unwelcoming. It was difficult to ring the front desk. I rang several times before someone answered. The person who answered seemed impatient, saying another customer was waiting.

The beautiful studio room was spacious. It included everything necessary for both short and long stays (even with my occasional need for extra space). The buffet breakfast offered many different options. It was delicious.

The room did not include toothbrush or toothpaste. These items were only available upon request (which i found inconvenient). I also noticed a lack of porter service upon arrival.
